Health Affairs <\/p>\n
February 17, 2017 <\/p>\n
Health Affairs seeks submissions for a series of articles focusing on the practice of medicine that we will begin publishing in early 2017. The series will explore the broad practice environment and how features of that environment affect physicians, other clinicians, and the practice of medicine on a number of dimensions. The practice environment includes forces that physicians and other clinicians respond to (both on a daily basis and in a strategic sense), such as regulatory requirements, payment policy, quality measurement, economic and market influences, the organization of care, technology, professional standards, etc. We are interested in papers that reflect on and explore how such factors affect care delivery, including consideration of broader implications for health care spending, access to care, and health outcomes. <\/p>\n
We will consider new empirical research, essays, reviews, and analysis\/commentaries that address these topics. <\/p>\n
We invite submissions from anyone with an interest in this topic. Health Affairs reaches a wide audience that includes policymakers; academics and researchers from many disciplines; health and public health professionals and officials; health industry executives; lawyers; consultants; students; and members of the media. Authors should be mindful of this breadth and aim to write for readers who have an interest in health policy issues, but should not assume expertise among readers on any particular topic. <\/p>\n
We welcome essays and commentaries, but submissions should have a strong basis in evidence and reflect a thorough understanding of the state of knowledge of the subjects explored as well as the policy issues and questions that surround those subjects. <\/p>\n
