AAPPR Live Webinar | Preventive Medicine Physicians: The Untapped Talent

📅 Wednesday, February 25, 2026 | 1 pm ET

As healthcare organizations shift toward value-based care, population health, and system-wide performance improvement, preventive medicine physicians remain an underutilized (and highly versatile) talent pool.

Join Rui Ariyapala, MD, MPH, Associate Chief Medical Officer at Piedmont Health Services and Chair of the Early Career Physicians Section of American College of Preventive Medicine, for a practical, recruiter-focused introduction to this specialty.

This session translates preventive medicine into clear recruitment language, outlining where these physicians work, the roles they fill, and how their training aligns with today’s workforce needs, from hospitals and health systems to public health, government, and private industry.

Attendees will leave with concrete talking points, role-alignment strategies, and greater confidence in recruiting preventive medicine physicians as a flexible, high-impact workforce solution.
