Call for Papers

 

Health Policy Challenges Affecting 

American Indians and Alaska Natives 

 

To encourage dialogue about how the United States can more effectively meet
the health care needs of American Indians and Alaska Natives, the Kaiser
Family Foundation and the American Journal of Public Health are soliciting
contributions to the "Research and Practice" and "Policy and Ethics"
sections of the Journal. If you are interested in submitting a paper for
this theme issue, please review the "Call for Papers". This project is part
of the Foundation's research efforts on Race, Ethnicity and Health Care. 

 

 

The American Journal of Public Health (AJPH), in collaboration with the
Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation, is planning to publish a collection of
papers on how the United States can more effectively meet the health care
needs of American Indians and Alaska Natives (AIANs). The guest editors are
soliciting contributions to the "Health Policy and Ethics" and "Research and
Practice" sections of AJPH.

 

Research articles (180 word structured abstract, 3,500 word text, up to four
tables/figures) and analytic essays (120 word unstructured abstract, 3,500
word text, up to four tables/figures) for the department "Health Policy and
Ethics" are encouraged that address the challenges or approaches to
eliminating health care disparities (in access, quality or financing of
care) between AIANs and other population groups. All papers will undergo
peer review by the AJPH editorial team, the guest editors and a slate or
referees, as per AJPH policy. 

 

In order to be considered for inclusion in the series, papers must be
submitted by September 1, 2004, through the online submission system at
http://submit.ajph.org <http://submit.ajph.org/>  <http://submit.ajph.org

Authors, including specific guidelines for various types of papers. When
submitting articles, please select "AIAN series" under the Theme Issue menu.
