Milbank Quarterly

Scope

Topics addressed in the Quarterly include but are not limited to the impact of social factors on health, disease prevention, allocation of health resources, legal and ethical issues in health policy, health care management, historical analysis of health policies, and the organization and financing of health care. We welcome, in particular, manuscripts that address the intersection between health and various sectors of public policy (eg, education, housing, environment, criminal justice), that propose new ideas and frameworks for improving health and health care at the state level and that test and evaluate new approaches and strategies for financing, organizing, and delivering services to various populations, and that provide lessons for the US health care system drawn from the experiences of other nations’ health care systems.
