It's easier said than done. Higher salary, better perks would require someone with a certain no. of years of experience.

About $2.8 - $3.1, depending whether you have honours, and no. of years of relevant experience.

Healthcare sector don't really pay well for administration (this includes HR, corp comms, medical affairs, finance, support services, etc), because most of the profits go to the rock stars of the field (eg: doctors, research & allied health). People tend to go into healthcare with the passion to serve in a people-oriented environment, and with the purpose of playing a role in improving the quality of lives of patients.
You may be wondering what I mean by administration plays a role in improving patients' lives. Without administration, hospitals can never function smoothly. Singapore hospitals are regarded as top quality because of the JCI awarded by the international committee. The administration do contribute to the success substantially just as much as healthcare professionals by working behind the scenes day and night. They are indeed the unsung heroes.
Despite the lower salaries, it can be pretty inspiring and meaningful to work in a healthcare-based setting, for healthcare is certainly of one of the fields where you perceived every individual staff as "Every joint supplies" (pun not intended). To me, that is very gratifying and beautiful. How many organisations or industry where one can really say they feel important no matter which dept they are from? Compare with FMCG industry, where the sales and marketing dept are celebrated and are the rock stars in the company, and other depts' achievements are downplayed and neglected just because they are deemed not as crucial to the survival of the company. I personally know some people in administration who left 1 healthcare institution to join another institution. Proves that there is a deeper meaning beneath their decision to stay in healthcare, and money is not everything in a career. Yes, I am highly idealistic, and I feel compel to share my insights from another perspective.

Leaving one health instituition to join another doesn't neccesarily mean having a deeper meaning to their decision to stay in healthcare. It could mean that their skills are not transferable to other industries, especially operations. Or it could mean that alternative jobs are just as low paying.
Personally, healthcare work culture isn't quite my cup of tea. Bureaucratic and hierarchical. Extreme worshipping of doctors. Having worked in other industries before, I was very surprised by the poor treatment of the staff by doctors. And such rude behavior is condoned.
