Quote
  Population health, in practice, must be much more than ‘the health outcomes of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group,’...What this means is that operating in the limited realm of healthcare delivery will not be sufficient. Our approach must involve interventions in housing, education, jobs, health literacy and the environment."  Samuel R. Nussbaum, M.D., Executive Vice President, Clinical Health Policy, Chief Medical Officer, WellPoint, Inc.
