    PopHealth Week: Can Preventive Medicine Finally Get Paid?
    Jul 12 2026
    What if the biggest gap in American health care isn't a drug, a device, or a diagnosis, but a discipline? On this episode host Fred Goldstein sits with Dr. Heather O'Hara, Chair of the American Board of Preventive Medicine, and Dr. Joshua R. Mann, founding Chair of the Department of Preventive Medicine at the University of Mississippi Medical Center, to unpack the often-misunderstood specialty of preventive medicine. They trace its reach across public health, occupational and environmental medicine, aerospace medicine, and lifestyle medicine, and explain why prevention-trained physicians rarely run stand-alone clinics, instead embedding inside hospitals, health departments, and employer health systems. The conversation turns candid on the economics of prevention, physician burnout, and what it will actually take for the health system to move "upstream."
