announced the appointment of Mark L. Dayton as vice president of
marketing. Dayton heads up an expanded strategic marketing and
communications function for MGIS and its subsidiary companies.
"Our company's growth path required a significant expansion of the

particularly for healthcare providers," Brunken said. "Mark's depth
