What does getting basic primary care to the population (vaccinations, preventive care, well baby care) have to do with how many research papers get written?

I have worked in one of the top medical schools in the US, with world-class researchers, and know that there is very little there that is directly applicable to a population of rural farmers and impoverished city dwellers.
