Press Release The Boston Congress of Public Health Review Announces New Policies on Author Positionality Statements, Declaration of Authorship Contributions, and Zero Percent AI Detection Boston, MA – July 19, 2024 – The Boston Congress of Public Health Review (BCPHR) is proud to announce the implementation of new policies aimed at enhancing transparency, integrity, and accountability in scholarly publications. These policies include the introduction of author positionality statements, mandatory declaration of authorship contributions, and a stringent zero percent AI detection standard for all submitted manuscripts. Author Positionality Statements: In an effort to foster greater transparency and self-awareness in research, BCPHR now requires all authors to include positionality statements in their submissions. These statements will provide insights into the authors’ backgrounds, perspectives, and potential biases, enabling readers to better understand the context and motivations behind the research. Declaration of Authorship Contributions: BCPHR has instituted a policy mandating the detailed declaration of each author’s contributions to the research and manuscript. This initiative is designed to promote fairness, recognize individual efforts, and ensure that student contributors are appropriately recognized for their efforts in research. Zero Percent AI Detection: BCPHR has adopted a zero percent AI detection policy in all manuscripts. While we endorse the use of AI to increase productivity and efficiency in the production of manuscripts, we do not endorse the replacement of original and creative writing, and independent scholarship with AI. All submitted manuscripts will undergo rigorous scrutiny to ensure that they are free from AI-generated content and we will have no exceptions. Manuscripts containing AI-written material will be desk-rejected without the opportunity for resubmission and publication consideration. Dr. Candice Carpenter, Co-Editor-in-Chief of BCPHR, commented: "These new policies highlight our resolute commitment to upholding the principles of transparency, integrity, and accountability in public health and social justice research. By introducing author positionality statements, detailed authorship contributions, and a strict zero percent AI detection standard, we aim to enhance the quality and reliability of the research and editorial pieces we publish." These policies will be effective immediately and apply to all future submissions to The Boston Congress of Public Health Review. We believe these steps will significantly contribute to the advancement of public health knowledge and the credibility of our journal.

“Battles in Washington between different types of health care companies dwarf conventional Right vs. Left or private sector vs. government dynamics. Despite the sheer scale of this industry competition, very little has been comprehensively documented in the public domain in a way that is accessible to policy and industry analysts. Since policy debates are often presented without accompanying industry context, they are frequently misunderstood.” Demystifying these fierce commercial competitions could help policy makers more accurately diagnose America’s most pressing health care policy challenges.

Warren Buffett said it best: “Price is what you pay, value is what you get.” When it comes to transactions involving physician practices, price and value are interconnected yet distinct. While price is a tangible, objective measure, value is more subjective, and can vary among individuals and circumstances. The regulatory environment for physician transactions generally requires that price be set at fair market value, which may preclude consideration of certain subjective value measures.  A proper FMV opinion requires comprehensive analysis of financial, operational, and market trends, applied with industry specific expertise.  Learn more: https://lnkd.in/g-WM5EqK #healthcarevaluation #valuation #healthcareadvisoryservices #advisoryservices
