Lockton Cos. L.L.C.’s benefits division has named Dr. Ronald S. Leopold as chief medical officer and leader of Lockton Health Risk Solutions.

Dr. Leopold most recently was the national practice leader of health outcomes at Willis Towers Watson P.L.C.

He lives in Atlanta, but will work out of Lockton’s Kansas City, Missouri office, the brokerage said in a statement.

Dr. Leopold replaces Dr. Eric Justin, who is no longer with Lockton, a Lockton spokeswoman said.

As leader of the Lockton Health Risk Solutions, Dr. Leopold will help employers reduce their health costs and develop targeted health programs to tackle health issues plaguing the workforce, the Lockton statement said.
