Health Affairs Editor-In-Chief Alan Weil To Step Down

Health Affairs announced this month that Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil will leave his role at the end of the year.

Health Affairs has changed significantly during Weil’s more than 10-year tenure, including:

Launching a new open access journal, Health Affairs Scholar
Turning the widely read Health Affairs Blog into the indexed Health Affairs Forefront
Launching a membership program, Insider
Launching and hosting the A Health Podyssey podcast
Leading the way on health equity

The flagship journal retained its role as the leading scholarly journal in its field while achieving significant growth in its Impact Factor.
