NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AMC Health today announced the appointment of James Considine as its new Chief Operating Officer, responsible for overseeing the company's business operations and translating AMC Health's strategic vision to drive continued growth and operating efficiency.
Mr. Considine brings over 20 years of management experience to AMC Health, including most recently serving as Head of Business Operations at Philips, where he was responsible for the company's inpatient monitoring business unit. Prior to that, he was responsible for business operations at Philips Lifeline, the market leader in personal emergency response, and held senior leadership roles at GE Power.
