Value in Health Regional Issues aims to be the recognized source for regional advancements in heath economics and outcomes research (HEOR).
Value in Health Regional Issues aims to publish papers that apply HEOR methods to examine and measure the impact on health systems, policies, and patient populations. Submitted research must focus on regional populations and regional health policies and demonstrate the broader implications for other regions.
Scope
Value in Health Regional Issues publishes a wide range of article types that contribute to our aims, including:
Applied Research Using HEOR Methods
Economic evaluations or impact analyses of healthcare interventions (pharmaceuticals, medical devices, or procedures) that examine the effect of regional health policies on healthcare performance, population health, or social welfare.
Health Policy Analyses
Articles that translate knowledge across countries (eg, evaluations between high- and low- and middle-income countries, cross country comparisons, etc) and discuss various aspects of health policy, including pricing and reimbursement issues, the adoption of new health technologies, or policies to encourage “value-based” decision making.
Health Equity Research
Research that reflects regional experiences using HEOR methods such as distributional or extended cost-effectiveness analysis, checklists for qualitative judgments, simple indicators, or deliberative exercises to incorporate health equity concerns into local resource allocation in decisions.
Patient-Centered Research
Articles that present research on the development and use of measures for patient-reported outcomes and quality-of-life instruments that express the value of healthcare. Research on patient participation in value-based decision-making processes or health technology assessment are also welcome. These papers should show results or impact on the community perception or changes in procedures or outcomes resulting from patient participation in research and policy making.
Scoping and Literature Reviews
Reviews that synthesize and summarize the current knowledge on a specific topic or question to identify the main concepts, theories, and evidence gaps within a specific geographic region. These papers review empirical studies consistent with the methods outlined by the Cochrane Collaboration and PRISMA.
