The Association for Marketing & Health Care Research 2022 Conference seeks submissions from a wide ranging set of topic areas. Given the name of the association and title of the conference, clearly research related to health care and services is welcome and encouraged. In addition, work on any of the following areas is also encouraged for submission: services and issues related to special populations (e.g., senior citizens, adolescents, ethnic groups), health communications (advertising, education, disease prevention, and health promotion), environmental issues, public policy, sustainability, family business ownership and operation issues (cost of health care, provision of care for employees, legal issues), business ethics, and geographically specific health care issues, innovations, and challenges (e.g. COVID). Manuscripts, special sessions, and/or proposals in other areas are also welcome and encouraged. Submission deadline is December 10, 2021.
