MOORESTOWN, N.J., Oct. 11, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Tabula Rasa HealthCare(NASDAQ:TRHC) Chairman and CEO Calvin H. Knowlton, PhD, today announced changes to TRHC’s corporate C-suite.
Current General Counsel and Chief Strategy Officer, Brian J. Litten, Esq., is being promoted to lead the new Office of Strategy Development (OSD).

He will oversee all product development, sales and implementation focused on new markets outside of the company’s PACE (Programs of All-Inclusive Care for the Elderly) market.

“We also are pleased to announce Kevin J. Dill, Esq., will serve as TRHC’s General Counsel and Chief Compliance Officer,” Knowlton said. “Kevin brings valuable public-company experience in the areas of risk assessment, compliance oversight, and efficiency of healthcare operations. I have asked Brian and Kevin to collaborate over the next few months to transition TRHC’s legal work to the Office of General Counsel. Until the completion of this transition, Brian will continue to serve as our General Counsel, while building the new Office of Strategic Development.”
