Health. Register here.

Top 10s From 2021

In 2021 Health Affairs continued its extensive coverage of a wide range
of health topics, including health care spending, health equity, state
and federal policy reform, COVID-19, and much more. In case you missed
them, today we are revisiting our year-end lists highlighting the top
articles from 2021.

Editor-in-Chief Alan Weil's list of top 10 Health Affairs articles

goes beyond our "most-read" articles and spotlights those that
explore particularly interesting questions or use unique methods or data
sources. Here are Weil's top three:

1.   The Effect Of The Affordable Care Act On Cancer Detection Among
The Near-Elderly

2.   Annual Out-Of-Pocket Spending Clusters Within Short Time
Intervals: Implications For Health Care Affordability

3.   High Nursing Staff Turnover In Nursing Homes Offers Important

If there is one thing that 2021 has proven, it's that

readers. Here are the first three of our top ten most-read journal
