The American Journal of Managed Care® (AJMC®) has announced its call for papers for the 11th Annual Health Information Technology (IT) issue, which will feature scholarly articles and perspectives from policy makers, payers, providers, pharmaceutical companies, health IT vendors and health services researchers.
Dr. Dori Cross, an assistant professor in the Department of Health Policy and Management at the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, will serve as the guest editor of the special issue, which will be published in January 2022.
Topics of interest for original research papers and informed commentary on health IT include, but are not limited to patterns of telemedicine use and impact; electronic health record usability and clinician burden; use of patient-facing portals, third-party applications and application programming interfaces (APIs); predictive analytics; health IT and equity; interoperability/data exchange; data safety/privacy; and adoption of advanced health IT capabilities.
Each submitted research paper will undergo peer review before being accepted. The final decision regarding a paper's acceptance will be made by Cross. Due to space constraints, AJMC® requests that Original Research articles be limited to 3,000 words and a total of five figures and/or tables; limits for other article types can be found on the AJMC® website.
Papers will have the best chance of inclusion if submitted before July 31, 2021. High-quality papers not selected for this issue will be considered for one of the regular monthly issues of AJMC®.
