Abstract

To promote the evaluation of existing long-term care (LTC) policies and the involvement of the scientific community in future LTC policymaking, the Gateway to Global Aging Data project organized a conference in November 2023. This LTC Policy Virtual Special Issue features eight papers from this conference that were invited to undergo further blind peer review prior to publication in Health Economics. This introduction to the LTC Policy Virtual Special Issue provides a summary of each article, briefly covering the research question, conceptualization of the problem, approach used, methodological challenges, key outcomes and findings, and implications for policy and future research.

期刊介绍： This Journal publishes articles on all aspects of health economics: theoretical contributions, empirical studies and analyses of health policy from the economic perspective. Its scope includes the determinants of health and its definition and valuation, as well as the demand for and supply of health care; planning and market mechanisms; micro-economic evaluation of individual procedures and treatments; and evaluation of the performance of health care systems. Contributions should typically be original and innovative. As a rule, the Journal does not include routine applications of cost-effectiveness analysis, discrete choice experiments and costing analyses. Editorials are regular features, these should be concise and topical. Occasionally commissioned reviews are published and special issues bring together contributions on a single topic. Health Economics Letters facilitate rapid exchange of views on topical issues. Contributions related to problems in both developed and developing countries are welcome.
