SYRACUSE, N.Y. — Inforia, Inc., a provider of electronic health records technology to medical practices, announced today that Karen S. Goetz, president and CEO since 2000, is leaving day-to-day operations of the business to become executive director of the nonprofit Richard S. Shineman Foundation in Oswego.

Goetz will stay on as company chair and remains the principal owner of Inforia.

The company has promoted Ryan E. Long to president, to succeed Goetz.

Long joined Inforia in 2012 as director of software development, where he most recently led the company’s successful 2014 government certification of its CaregiverDesktop suite, according to a company news release.  Long will seek to build on Inforia’s approach to modernizing, securing, and improving the flow of health records in doctors’ practices and the offices of other health-care providers.

Long, an investor in Inforia, returned to the Syracuse area after 11 years with UBS Wealth Management in the Data Warehouse and Business Intelligence Group, where he rose to the director level.

At the Shineman Foundation, Goetz will start her new position on Oct. 20. She will succeed the foundation’s first executive director, Lauren Pistell, who is moving out of state for family reasons, according to a Shineman Foundation news release.

Goetz was a charter member of the foundation’s board of directors, before stepping down from that position on Sept. 30 in advance of taking over as executive director.
