CoxHealth hires new VP

CoxHealth has added a new member to its leadership team.

Kyle Brown started Nov. 8 as vice president of marketing and communications, according to a news release. He's succeeding Jann Holland, who plans to retire from the health system next year.

“We are glad to welcome Kyle to our leadership team at CoxHealth and to the Ozarks,” says Max Buetow, president and CEO of CoxHealth in the release. "We have incredible marketing and corporate communications departments, and Kyle’s experience will only make them stronger."

With more than two decades of experience, Brown most recently worked as senior director of global corporate communications and digital strategy at San Diego-based Cue Health and previously served as director of global corporate marketing, communications and commercial excellence for Merck, according to his LinkedIn profile.

Holland is assisting with the transition to Brown in the coming months ahead of her planned spring 2025 retirement, according to the release. She joined CoxHealth in early 2017 after working in marketing and communications at Drury University.
