Interactive nested diagram showing the IOM prevention spectrum (universal, selective, indicated) embedded within the classical prevention tiers (primordial, primary, secondary, tertiary). Clicking each level reveals a definition, target population, public health example, and cost-effectiveness profile. Color coding distinguishes IOM levels (blue gradient from universal to indicated) from traditional tiers (green gradient from primordial to tertiary). A toggle button allows switching between the two classification systems so students see how they relate.
