CFO Edward Chadwick: Rapid Action at Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center

Edward Chadwick is CFO of Winston-Salem, N.C.-based Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center, overseeing the finances of northwest North Carolina's only academic medical center.

Moody's Investors Service lauded fast actions taken by Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center's financial leaders, who responded quickly to slumping performance in the first half of fiscal year 2013 by making cuts to labor and pension expenses and halting large-scale capital projects to stabilize the system's balance sheets.

Mr. Chadwick, who holds an MBA, has three decades of experience in healthcare finance. He previously served as CFO of Livonia, Mich.-based Trinity Health, managing the 42-hospital Catholic system's $6 billion in annual revenue. He left Trinity in 2009 to form his own company, Integrated Healthcare Financial Strategies.
