Verified Reviews
Note: Verified reviews are sourced from across review platforms and social media globally.
Submitted on July 25, 2020, the external review process began in August and continued until October 17th, awaiting my decision. After waiting for a month, I sent an email to remind them, and the editorial department replied, asking for recommended reviewers. Then, they recommended three reviewers, and the review process started again. On February 17th, 2021, I received major revisions, returned them on March 17th, and on March 19th, they requested ethical certification materials. Finally, on May 14th, I was notified of acceptance. It was difficult to find reviewers in the field of health economics, so it took a long time to find reviewers. Good luck to everyone.

Submitted in July, received feedback in November, underwent major revisions. Four reviewers were consulted, each providing careful and detailed feedback. It took over a month to respond and make the necessary revisions. After the second review, minor revisions were made and acceptance was notified a few days later. The overall process took approximately six months.
