This special issue of the Journal of Vincentian Social Action seeks contributions dedicated to Health Care and Social Justice. With the many questions being raised about Pharma, Health Care Insurers, Hospital Managers, as well as the future of the ACA, Medicaid, and Medicare, there are many issues that particularly affect the poor, elderly, and marginalized members of society.
The challenges are many, and therefore for this special issue we welcome the submission of manuscripts that address topics of concern associated with the plight of the poor in health care acquisition, the ethical question and moral obligation of providing health care to non-citizens, why prescription drugs are so expensive (the PBMs, patent extensions, exploitation of regulations that hurt the consumer, etc.), the opioid crisis, and many others.
If you have questions concerning the content for this special issue, please contact Dr. Robert A. Mangione (mangionr@stjohns.edu).
JoVSA is published biannually with special issues throughout the year, engaging the greater community in the service of the disadvantaged.
The journal provides a scholarly forum for those working to address community-defined needs; a forum where practical solutions are presented to address the plight of the disadvantaged and needy. Measurement and assessment of these efforts connecting action to outcome are a critical component ensuring positive results and real change in the lives of the disadvantaged.
