Call for Nominations — HCUP’s Outstanding Article of the Year Award

Nominations are now being accepted for HCUP’s Outstanding Article of the Year Award, which will recognize research published in peer-reviewed journals in 2019 that used the HCUP databases to explore and address healthcare research topics and issues. Work honored will demonstrate how HCUP has contributed to the healthcare services field. 

Researchers may self-nominate or be nominated by another individual (e.g., a colleague of the author or authors). Awards will be presented during an HCUP session at AcademyHealth’s 2020 Annual Research Meeting (ARM), which will be held June 13–16 in Boston, Massachusetts. Complimentary registration as well as transportation and accommodations for the event will be provided. One clinical winner and one policy winner will be chosen. 

The nomination period will close on Friday, February 28, 2020, at 11:59 p.m. ET. For complete information, please visit the HCUP-US website at www.hcup-us.ahrq.gov/news/awards.jsp. For questions, please contact HCUPPres@us.ibm.com.
