For current public companies, you're right, because public company CEOs outside of recent tech cos are rarely founders.

Healthcare founders almost always have either medical and/or science training.

I don't think it's necessarily a bad thing. There is a whole new crop of start-ups in the healthcare space with founders coming from Google and Facebook (ie Flatiron Health). I think this is great for bringing innovation to an industry that is hurting for it.
