Peer Review and Publication Process

The typical peer-review period is approximately 4–6 weeks. However, the review time may vary depending on reviewer availability, the complexity of the manuscript, and the extent of revisions required.

Health Policy, Economics and Sociology follow a continuous publication model and publish two issues per year.

Accepted articles are published online individually as soon as peer review, final acceptance, editorial processing, and technical production have been completed, without waiting for all articles assigned to an issue to be ready. Newly published articles are progressively added to the relevant current issue. Once the current issue is completed, the subsequent issue is opened, and new articles continue to be published according to the same continuous publication model.

The publication date of each article corresponds to the actual date on which its final, official version of record is published online.
