Publication occurs in one or more of the following ways: • Authors may submit completed manuscripts. • Individuals are encouraged to contact the editor or a member of either the editorial or advisory boards to discuss their ideas for submitting a manuscript. Editorial consultants also are available to work with aspiring authors. • Authors may submit written proposals describing an idea or concept for a manuscript consistent with the theme of the journal. Proposals serve as a method to explore an idea and may request assistance or co-authorship with other interested/knowledgeable individuals. Proposals should be submitted to the editor(s). HHS accepts manuscripts in the following formats: Case Reports: Include abstract, introduction, case presentation, discussion and reference. Reviews: Follow the format of reviews in the New England Journal of Medicine. Research: Follow uniform requirements for manuscripts submitted to biomedical journals.
