Natalie Fox Named New USA Health CEO
Natalie Fox has been named CEO for USA Health, the 7,300-employee academic health system for the University of South Alabama (USA). She served as interim CEO for four months following the announcement of the retirement of former USA Health CEO Owen Bailey. Beginning with patient care in 2011, Fox held various roles across USA Health, including spearheading quality projects focused on improving population health outreach and reducing barriers to patient access. She also led team-based care initiatives for physician practices and served as manager of clinical operations for its pediatric division. In 2023, she was promoted to chief physician enterprise officer responsible for overall strategy, performance and operational effectiveness of the physician enterprise, composed of more than 700 physicians, advanced practice providers, residents and fellows who care for patients in dozens of faculty and community physician practices. As the COVID-19 pandemic reached the Alabama Gulf Coast in 2020, Fox led USA Health’s efforts to provide timely and convenient COVID-19 testing and, later, vaccine administration through a partnership with the City of Mobile. She was presented with a Mobile Community Health Leadership Award in May 2022. In recent years, Fox has been recognized at the local, state and national levels.
