Haywood named CFO for Genesys Health System

GENESEE COUNTY — Nancy Haywood has been named Chief Financial Officer (CFO) for Genesys Health System. Reporting directly to Betsy Aderholdt, president and CEO of Genesys, Haywood will lead the system’s financial operations, including Accounting, Accounts Payable, Health Information Management, Payroll, Real Estate, Patient Registration, Revenue Cycle, and Financial & Strategic Planning.

A certified public accountant, Haywood has worked in finance at Genesys for the past 21 years, most recently as director of Financial & Strategic Planning.

She replaces Chris Palazzolo, who was promoted to senior vice president and chief operating officer (COO) of Genesys in April.

“Nancy is a natural choice for CFO,” said Aderholdt. “For years, she has been a key leader for our financial operations and has helped achieve significant annual savings for Genesys.”

Haywood earned her bachelor’s of science degree in Accounting from the University of Missouri-Columbia. Prior to joining Genesys, she worked for seven years at Ernst & Young as an accountant and an audit manager. — G.G.
