Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Public health does not only concern patients and medical procedures aimed at improving the health of the population, subpopulations, and target groups in terms of treating disease. Rather, it includes issues such as the quality of life, the costs of procedures, disease prevention, and drugs. These issues are critical elements of national, continental and global healthcare strategies, as perfectly demonstrated by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Pharmacoeconomics, health economics, and medical decision economics are just some of the essential elements of medical strategy, which is perceived differently in different countries.

This Special Issue, entitled “Cost, Economics and Databases of Pharmaceutical Drugs in Public Health: Second Edition”, offers a unique opportunity to show the multifaceted nature of this issue, starting from costs and ending with the use of medical databases and systematic reviews in the effective use or allocation of resources to treat patients (including drugs).

I cordially invite you and your staff to submit publications to this Special Issue.

Dr. Krzysztof Kus
Guest Editor
