NEW YORK—MMC has hired Cohn & Wolfe's Lisa Talbot for a senior healthcare role at the agency and sister operation Rx Mosaic.

Talbot, who spent more than a decade at Cohn & Wolfe, joins MMC as MD of healthcare strategy and business development. The appointment comes one year after MMC took charge of Omnicom healthcare firm Rx Mosaic.

In addition, Kelly Cacioppo has been promoted to MD of MMC's health and well-being practice. Michele Schimmel will continue leading Rx Mosaic. Talbot, Cacioppo and Schimmel all report to Diana Littman Paige, MMC's executive director of healthcare and consumer.

"Recognizing the sophistication of MMC and Rx Mosaic’s collective healthcare client base, and its growth potential, this new healthcare leadership structure is designed to meet the needs of healthcare brands in a rapidly-changing marketplace," said Littman Paige in a statement.
