Get help with your application
Use all the free resources available to you from SDN: articles, guides, expert advising, forums discussions, and school research.
I wouldn't bring special attention to the matter. Your Personal Statement will touch on the matter of why you felt it important to pursue another educational objective before attending med school, and that should be all you need to say.
I would do my best to not bring attention to the fact that you turned med school down before....
I am sure they will be on that one already so have a good explanation ready!!

Write the school a letter of interest explaining why you decided not to matriculate before and why they KNOW you'll actually attend if accepted now. Say that you wanted both an MPH and an MD in order to accomplish your future career goals, and getting them in that order made more sense financially.
The letter should focus on why you want to attend their particular school. (e.g. What programs of theirs interest you? How would your experiences allow you to contribute to these programs in a meaningful way?) Bonus points if you somehow connect your MPH to one of their programs.

Don't say MD, remember NYCOM is a DO school.
Lol.
I wouldn't ignore it. Schools have a pretty extensive history of what you did regarding med school applications.
