Edward Chabalowski has been named vice president of finance and chief financial officer for Penn State Health’s Berks and Lancaster county region, effective Tuesday, Sept. 7.

Chabalowski, who is chief financial officer for two hospitals within Tower Health, will serve as the senior financial leader for Penn State Health St. Joseph and the future Penn State Health Lancaster Medical Center.

Prior to that, he was recruited to lead the integration of Community Medical Center in Scranton into Geisinger Health System and later served as vice president of financial integration and operations improvement.

From 1997 to 2012, Chabalowski served as director of finance and later chief financial officer at Temple University Hospital in Philadelphia.
