 Call for Manuscripts: Marketing in the Healthcare Sector, Special Issue of the Journal of Marketing

 Healthcare is vital to our interconnected world. As the world faces a pandemic of a magnitude not witnessed for over 100 years, we are reminded of its fundamental role. Consumers (patients) seek health, healthcare providers and institutions work to deliver care, insurance companies and governments monitor its costs, markets compete on it, policy regulates it, and society benefits from its successes or is challenged by its failings. Marketing as a discipline, however, has not lived up to its potential contributions to this important aspect of our lives. This Journal of Marketing Special Issue is dedicated to promoting research on healthcare marketing with the goal of improving knowledge of this critical research domain.

  • Review the call for papers, including relevant topics, types of papers, and editorial review process.
  • Attend a Special Session at the Summer AMA launching the Special Issue: This session will launch the Special Issue by overviewing its objectives and potential topics. Scholars from across the marketing discipline will share a short description of their own views on the key unanswered questions facing marketing in the healthcare sector so as to inspire your involvement in this topic and in the Special Issue.
