Call for Submissions: Health Affairs 'Aging and Health' Series

Health Affairs is continuing its series on Aging and Health through 2016 and 2017. The publication is encouraging submissions from authors on topics surrounding the care of older adults, including new models of care and the management of multiple chronic conditions among this population. They are interested in work that spans the full range of care settings, including primary care and specialty practices, hospitals, nursing homes and other long-term care settings. Likewise, in addition to exploring topics that are directly related to the provision of care, we also welcome papers on a broad array of related dimensions that affect care, access, and affordability, such as financing models, coverage, and size and composition of the workforce. The series is sponsored by The John A. Hartford Foundation, which provides support for ongoing coverage of these topics.

Health Affairs has covered these issues throughout its history--you will find numerous articles in their searchable online archive. These include articles published in our Aging and Health series, which began in 2015. They are particularly interested in papers that build on their previous coverage by exploring new facets of these topics, presenting new data, raising emerging policy issues, etc.
