  • Roanoke, VA (1888PressRelease) August 03, 2010 - MEDecision, Inc., a leading provider of collaborative healthcare management solutions, today announced that its founder, David St.Clair, will suspend his retirement to re-join the company as CEO, replacing Scott A. Storrer who has announced his resignation to pursue other interests. St.Clair will remain in the position during the search for Storrer's permanent replacement.

    "There is no one more qualified than David St.Clair to direct MEDecision's continued growth during this brief period of transition," said Colleen Reitan, chairperson of the board for MEDecision and executive vice president and chief operating officer for Health Care Service Corporation, its parent company. "He is primarily responsible for making it the market-leading company it is today. His familiarity and expertise will ensure stability as MEDecision continues to build strength in a rapidly changing industry."

    "Like healthcare itself, there are tremendous opportunities on the horizon for MEDecision," St.Clair said. "Our main priority is to extend the momentum we've built over the past year. We will continue to enhance our products, services and approach so that we are optimally positioned to help existing and prospective customers capitalize on the industry's changing landscape."

    Since his retirement in January, St.Clair has maintained an active role with MEDecision as a member of its board of directors. He originally founded the company in 1988 to offer healthcare organizations collaborative healthcare management solutions that provide a simplified and smart way to manage the health of members and member populations. MEDecision has since grown into an industry leader known for its continuous innovation in healthcare management solutions, while St.Clair is widely regarded as one of health information technology's leading visionaries.

    Both Storrer's resignation and St.Clair's assumption of the CEO position are effective immediately.
