Submission Template Forms

You can submit your abstract or session proposal to submissions@healtheconomics.org. We are providing Microsoft Word Templates that you can either fill out or use as a model for your submission.

Disclosure

Disclosure of funding sources for the session as well as other potential conflicts of interest will be required for both individual abstracts and session proposals. If the material has already been presented or published elsewhere we will ask that you include this in the disclosure step.

Additional Information about Individual Abstracts

Individual abstracts may be up to 500 words in length on any topic in health economics. Individual abstracts will be subject to blinded review by three separate reviewers. Please ensure that you do not include any author details within the abstract text.

Additional Information about Session Proposals

Submission of session proposals will include uploading a detailed written proposal. Submitted organized session proposals are peer-reviewed by three separate reviewers as a complete package. Prior professional activities of session participants are criteria for acceptance and thus this review is not blinded. Individual abstracts from proposals not accepted in the organized session intake will be entered in a repêchage peer-review that is blinded.
