Angela Braly - WellPoint

Total Compensation: $9,844,212

Details: Braly, like Williams, earned more money in 2008 ($9,844,212) than in 2007 (9,094,271), increasing her option rewards by nearly $1.5 million, and also receiving a $200,000-plus bump in base salary, from $922,269 to $1,135,538. Braly's stock awards dropped from $2,160,159 to $1,750,015 because, according to the SEC, "performance-based restricted stock units awarded in 2008 were cancelled because our ROE target for 2008 was not met." 

Braly's "other compensation" comprised use of a private jet for her and her family on business trips, just under $10,000 for legal services relating to her employment agreement and cash credits.

This is so cool, I hope she enjoys the money. We (all of IT) just got laid and they outsourced our jobs to Malaysia and Panama. 360 people got laid off and our last day is August 3, 2009. At least she can sleep well not worrying about taking care of HER family.

Ok, laid OFF is what I meant.

I have Blue cross Anthem insurance through my work. I make $35,000 a year. I have Lupus and Diabetes. Many times I have to do without insulin and other medications because I cannot pay the deductable. But I’m so proud of my insurance health care company Anaheim-Blue Cross-Blue Shield- WellPoint. They made a profit of $3.345 billion last year. Go, go Angela. I can do without insulin if it helps my insurance company make more money and maybe Ms Braly will get that much needed raise, way to represent women were so proud of you.

It takes some special genius to raise insurance premiums to get back to profitability...she's worth every penny.
