Healthcare costs are the second-largest expense for most employers — and they keep rising. Yet most organizations invest heavily in treatment and insurance while underinvesting in the one thing that reliably reduces both: prevention.
Dr. Paul Kilgore — a physician-epidemiologist, longevity medicine physician, and Wayne State University professor — presents the economic and scientific case for shifting corporate health strategy from reactive to preventive. Drawing on 36 years of clinical experience, epidemiological research, and his work building physician-designed health tools used by individuals and organizations, he shows how structured prevention programs reduce absenteeism, lower claims costs, improve productivity, and build a healthier workforce.
This session covers the evidence linking prevention to organizational performance, the specific interventions with the strongest ROI data, how to measure the impact of prevention investments, and how to deploy a scalable prevention strategy using tools and frameworks from drpaulkilgore.com. Dr. Kilgore addresses the common objections — cost, engagement, measurement — and provides practical solutions for each.
Attendees leave understanding not just why prevention pays, but how to build the business case within their own organization.
