Houston, Texas Oct 14, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Barry S. Lachman, MD, MPH, a nationally recognized leader in healthcare for underserved populations, is making significant strides in addressing critical social factors affecting community health through his role as President and CEO of Lachman Community Development and Consulting Services, LLC. With over 50 years of experience in healthcare delivery, program development, and advocacy, Dr. Lachman has dedicated his career to improving the lives of individuals in underserved communities.
His extensive background includes 25 years as a managed care Medical Director, where he has established himself as an expert in the management of asthma and preterm birth prevention. Dr. Lachmans innovative work has resulted in substantial improvements in healthcare access and quality for marginalized populations. He is also currently serving as President of the Board of Directors for Reach Out Rise Up, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting vulnerable communities.
Among his notable achievements, Dr. Lachman was the visionary behind the National Health Service Corps, a federal initiative that has served 20 million individuals and celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2020. His leadership in asthma management has produced remarkable outcomes, including a 40% reduction in asthma costs for Medicaid children by significantly decreasing emergency room visits and hospital admissions.
Dr. Lachmans influence extends beyond asthma care; he has played a pivotal role in shaping housing policies that impact health outcomes. His collaboration with Dallas Area Interfaith unveiled the correlation between asthma rates and poor housing conditions, ultimately leading to the implementation of the strictest housing code in the United States in Dallas.
