Forum for Health Economics & Policy
Forum for Health Economics & Policy showcases articles in key substantive areas that lie at the intersection of health economics and health policy. The journal uses an innovative structure of forums to reflect the most pressing and timely subjects in health economics and health policy, such as biomedical research and the economy, and aging and medical care costs. Forums are chosen by the Editorial Board to reflect topics where additional research is needed by economists and where the field is advancing rapidly. The journal is edited by Katherine Baicker of Harvard University, Jay Bhattacharya of Stanford University, David Cutler of Harvard University, Alan Garber of Stanford University, Dana Goldman of RAND, and Tomas Philipson of the University of Chicago, and sponsored by RAND Health, a premier national health research think tank. A subscription to the journal also includes the proceedings from the National Bureau of Economic Research's annual Frontiers in Health Policy Research Conference.

Journal of Drug Policy Analysis
Journal of Drug Policy Analysis focuses on practical, policy-analytic insights on the problems and policies of drug abuse control. Short peer-reviewed articles and essays analyze every aspect of the policy problems posed by abusable psychoactives, licit and illicit, anywhere in the world. Using data-driven and conceptual approaches, as well as the methods of the social and biological sciences, the humanities, medicine, public health, law, law enforcement, and public management, the journal emphasizes informed policy analysis: the stakes in a given policy choice, and the terms of the tradeoffs among the values and interests in play. Edited by prominent scholars at RAND and UCLA, Journal of Drug Policy Analysis drives the public and scholarly conversation about how to deal with the issues surrounding drug policy, a conversation of vital interest to drug policy researchers, criminologists, economists, physicians, and those who make decisions about drug policy.

World Medical and Health Policy
World Medical and Health Policy studies the ways that public policy affects the practice of medicine. Though medical practice itself focuses on the individual patient, it occurs in an increasingly complex and increasingly global environment governed by macro-level policy decisions as well as social and economic contexts. Diseases, patients, treatments, doctors, and medical technology spread and travel around the world, and medical practice is now as much subject to global policy decisions as it is to micro-level clinical practices. The mission of World Medical and Health Policy is to publish evidence-based research on the intersection of public policy and medical practice, and to translate it into policy implications and recommendations. Edited by a group of medical doctors, medical researchers, and policy scholars from the World Medical Association and George Mason University, the journal helps clinicians navigate the often tangled world of policies, regulation, and medical ethics, procedures, and helps policymakers design policies that improve health outcomes.
