The conversation also explores the importance of supporting clinician innovators, creating sustainable business models, and fostering a culture that embraces bold ideas.

Can Employers Fix Healthcare? Why Prevention Must Start at Work

In this episode of Prevention Over Prescription, Dr. K explores why the future of healthcare depends on employers embracing prevention instead of waiting for governments to solve a system under increasing strain. With emergency departments overcrowded, primary care access declining, and chronic disease driving healthcare costs, Dr. K explains how investing in employee wellness through fitness, nutrition, stress management, and a strong workplace culture can improve health outcomes while reducing burnout and absenteeism. He also discusses why leadership must model healthy behaviours and why businesses have a unique opportunity to reshape healthcare from the ground up. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
