GEC NEWS WIRECerner MEA appointed two additional general managers to strengthen its client engagement model in the Middle East. Adrian Dey has been appointed as the new General Manager for Qatar and Michael Schelper, COO in the Middle East & Africa, will take on the additional role of General Manager for the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait.

Under his leadership, we’ll continue working with Cerner’s client organizations to enhance the health care experience for patients and caregivers,” said Pomerance.
