Population health has been defined as the health outcomes of a group of individuals, including the distribution of such outcomes within the group. These populations can be based on geographic regions such as nations or communities, but also can be other groups, such as employees or ethnic groups. Source: What is Population Health? (David Kindig, MD, PhD and Greg Stoddart, PhD are pioneers in population health)
Public health is the branch of medicine concerned with improving the health of people and their communities by promoting healthy lifestyles and disease and injury prevention. Public health often addresses larger communities, including those determined not by geography but by race, gender, immigration status, disability level, or other factors. Source: Public Health
