NEWPORT BEACH, Calif. - May 2, 2008 - The TriZetto Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: TZIX) today announced that Bob Barbieri, the company's chief financial officer, has departed the company for personal reasons. "TriZetto's management team and the board of directors thank Bob for his contributions and wish him continued success in his future ventures," said Jeff Margolis, TriZetto's chairman and CEO.

Barbieri's departure is not as a result of any disagreement with the company. A search for a new CFO has been initiated. In the interim, the strong team that comprises the office of the CFO will continue to drive day-to-day activities. TriZetto's board of directors has appointed the company's corporate controller, Carl Long, as the principal accounting officer.

"I have every confidence in our team's capabilities during this interim period and there will be no loss in momentum, either in operating the company or in working towards completing the company's acquisition by Apax Partners," added Margolis.
