Journal Information
Article Processing Charge (APC)
Annals of Medical and Health Research: An International Journal is a fully open-access journal, ensuring that all published articles are freely available online without subscription barriers. To maintain high-quality publishing standards—including peer review management, professional copyediting, typesetting, DOI registration, digital archiving, and long-term accessibility—the journal applies an Article Processing Charge (APC).
APC Policy
Authors are required to pay the APC only after their manuscript is accepted following successful peer review.
The APC guarantees immediate open access, enhanced global visibility, and eligibility for indexing in major scholarly databases.
There are no submission or initial review fees; payment is requested only upon acceptance.
APC Rates
Standard APC: USD [XXX] / INR [XXX] per accepted article.
Discounts and Waivers
Authors from low-income countries (as classified by the World Bank) may apply for a partial or full waiver.
Early-career researchers, postgraduate students, and trainees may request APC discounts.
Editorial board members, guest editors, and reviewers contributing substantially to the journal may also be eligible for reduced APCs.
Payment Information
Detailed payment instructions are provided after manuscript acceptance.
Payments can be made via bank transfer, credit/debit card, or institutional payment.
APC payments are non-refundable once the article is published online.
Funding Support
Authors are encouraged to check with their institutions, research grants, or funding agencies, as many provide support for open-access publishing costs.
By implementing APCs, Annals of Medical and Health Research ensures a sustainable open-access publishing model that maximizes the reach, visibility, and impact of medical and health research worldwide.
