For SullivanCotter, Integrity and Independence are two values that are the foundations of the Firm.

As stewards of organizational finances and governance, Boards and Executive leaders must rely on non-conflicted data and counsel. Relationships built on integrity are essential to securing trusted advice. SullivanCotter delivers that integrity daily. With every relationship, every analysis, through each plan and its execution, we remain your objective third-party advisors to meet and manage change.

SullivanCotter does not nor have we ever offered any services which could compromise our consulting integrity. Potential conflicts of interest include financial auditing, executive search, or outsourcing services. We do not perform actuarial evaluations for broad-based plans, sell or broker insurance products, or accept commissions or referral fees. What we do is provide an objective perspective, which is the type of counsel our clients are required to consider in discharging their fiduciary obligations.

SullivanCotter’s consultants have decades of experience working with tax-exempt, not-for-profit health care, education and Association/Foundations. Our consultants are trusted, senior-level advisors focused on executive, physician and employee compensation and value. We are experts in evaluating, refining, and designing compensation programs, including base pay and incentive programs, benefit plans, and other program elements.
Our multiple office structure provides us with unique insight into regional issues facing organizations today including governance of executive pay, compensation and benefits. Because we work almost exclusively with tax-exempt organizations such as hospitals, health systems, educational institutions, associations and other not-for-profit industry organizations, we are highly effective in addressing industry best practices, governance reform initiatives, and regulatory compliance requirements.

SullivanCotter invests significant resources in collecting and analyzing human resources, compensation and benefits data (as well as best practices information) for not-for-profit health care organizations.
In addition, we also maintain a library of nearly all of the commercially available health care and general industry compensation and benefits surveys. We also maintain a large library of research and data that informs our thinking regarding the industry, markets, specialties, as well as analytic tools and methods, to turn data into information.
