Where’s the shortage of healthcare administrators?

Speaking of US healthcare specifically here. There are massive shortages in the labor market generally, and in healthcare specifically. We (referring to my hospital but we can clearly generalize) are short of nurses, MAs, CNAs, PT/OT, and of late we’re even losing and failing to replace docs and APPs. Not to mention janitors, cooks, basically any position one can think of. The party line is always the same: “We’re offering the market standard pay”. Which is followed up with, “Every hospital is struggling to find workers”. Which of course translates as, “We refuse to pay enough to effectively recruit/retain staff”.

Now, here’s my question: why is administration NEVER understaffed?? Do these people care so much more about their paper-shuffling, that they’re willing to work in suboptimal conditions for inadequate pay, whereas the rest of us clinical folk are just too selfish to keep our heads down and power through? Or could there be another set of rules in place for the folks who get to write the rules? 🤔

TL/DR: this shit is frustrating
