Can public health and medicine partner in the public interest?

J Michael McGinnis. Health Aff (Millwood). 2006 Jul-Aug.

Abstract

The dominant issues for health and health care today can be effectively engaged only if public health and medicine work together as better partners. Yet historical, professional, organizational, operational, and financial barriers exist to closer relationships. Fostering the necessary collaboration will require changes for both public health and medicine in leadership styles, professional education, practice incentives, accountability measures, and financing structures.
