Three Department of Medicaid employees earned $150,000 or more annually in Ohio in 2019, according to data provided by the Ohio Treasurer.

The highest annual salary earned among Department of Medicaid employees in Ohio was $250,039.35 to Mary Applegate.

Department of Medicaid paid $26,117.95 as overtime in 2019.

The highest salary was $237,225.32 in 2018.

A report from members of the Federal Salary Council published on May 2, 2019 argued the pay structures within the U.S. government are skewed and federal workers are overpaid.

Downsizing the Federal Government, a project advocating for smaller government in the face of rising deficits, argued over 2 million federal employees earned on average $30,000 more than private-sector employees in similar fields and have more generous benefit packages.
