Home Page: Value in Health
Value in Health is an international, indexed journal that publishes original research and health policy articles that advance the field of health economics and outcomes research to help healthcare leaders make evidence-based decisions. The Society’s flagship journal, Value in Health is a monthly publication that circulates to 10,000 readers around the world.
For the past few years, Value in Health has demonstrated significant growth in the journal?s impact factor. The journal’s current impact factor is 5.725 and the 5-year impact factor score is 6.932. The journal is now rated 4th of 88 journals in healthcare sciences and services, 9th of 108 journals in health policy and services, and 24th of 376 journals in economics (social science).
The journal has also witnessed more than a 70% increase in submissions over the past 5 years. As a result, the editors now find it necessary to reject many more papers without peer review, including ones that may be suitable for publication in other leading journals. In 2020, the journal’s overall rejection rate was nearly 85%. Although we recognize that authors never want to hear that their papers are rejected, we also know that they value a fast response time. That said, the editors strive to return decisions on papers that are not sent out for an external peer review within 2 weeks.
