BELLEVUE, Wash.: Edifecs, Inc., a global health information technology solutions company, announced today the addition of Stephen Ayers to its leadership team as chief financial officer (CFO). With decades of finance management experience, including executive level leadership positions at Lyric, Change Healthcare, and McKesson Corp., Ayers will lead Edifecs’ finance team with a focus on growth.
