HOUSTON TX--(Marketwired - Jul 9, 2015) - Nobilis Health Corp. (
"Given Nobilis' rapid growth we have identified the need for a leader who will oversee the systematic oversight and management of key performance analytics as well as management of post-transaction integration of the all-important area of revenue cycle management," said Chris Lloyd, CEO, "Andy Chen has proven exceptional in these areas as well as in all of the other aspects of his duties as CFO. However, given our size and pace of expansion the time has come to bifurcate these roles and we are extremely fortunate to have Kenny Klein available to take over the day-to-day CFO responsibilities. Mr. Klein's vast finance and accounting experience coupled with his outstanding communication skills make him the obvious and exciting choice for our CFO."
