Preventive-medicine physicians specialize in implementing measures to promote health and well-being. These doctors focus on the causes of disease, reducing the need for costly medical intervention. However, training opportunities for preventive medicine are limited by funding.

Increasing the number of preventive-medicine-trained physicians would generate low-cost, high-value opportunities to improve existing health-department services, benefiting communities and helping the nation’s bottom line
