Unlike Hashirama and Hiruzen, being Powerhouses, and Minato and Tobirama, being Assassin's; Tsunade, and Sakura, fall under their own category when addressing the safety of a village — Utility. They are Medical Experts, after all, and attain techniques that can heal, replenish and protect an entire village courtsey of The Strength of a Hundred Seal. So yes, when you add the seal to their observational presence of mind and combative prowess, it is enough to class Sakura as Kage level.

— Intelligence.

— Medical Ninjutsu.

— Chakra-Enhanced Strength.

— Strength of a Hundred Seal.

— Leadership skills.

— And like Tsunade, the Will of Fire.

Remember, Tsunade became Hokage, and Sakura isn't too different from her in terms of what can be offered to the village.
