Where to Submit Your Writing: “Quality Improvement-Friendly” Peer-Reviewed Journals
The following is a short, informal list of peer-reviewed journals that we have found to be receptive to publishing articles related to quality improvement.
Note: The best way to get to know what any journal is all about is to sit down and go through several recent issues, cover-to-cover. It’s best to do this in the library with a print version, since you’ve got the whole issue in your hand. It’s also useful to take a look at the online version, but remember that online versions a) may have only selected pieces of content, and b) don’t put some of their content up for six months.
Annals of Internal Medicine
Established in 1927 by the American College of Physicians (ACP), the Annals of Internal Medicine is the leading journal for studies in internal medicine. The purpose of the journal–to promote excellence in the clinical practice of internal medicine–is supported by presentation of a wide variety of experimental and clinical subject matter in the Article, Brief Communication, Update, and Review formats. And to support the belief that physicians should also be well-informed citizens of both the medical community and society at large, Annals offers background and discussion of issues that influence both physicians and patients. This information is primarily carried in the Perspective, In the Balance, and Editorial formats. In addition, the journal presents personal narratives in the On Being a Doctor and the On Being a Patient formats that convey the feeling and the art of medicine.
Note: Annals has a section called “Improving Patient Care,” which includes reports of original research, reviews, and perspectives on improving the quality of patient care and avoiding medical errors. More information here:
