Health Research in JFEI Over a Decade: 2009-2019

This article is a review of thirty health-related articles published in the Journal of Family and Economic Issues from 2009 until 2019. This review discusses how the thirty studies have addressed broad areas of concern around health care access, health utilization and health status as well as health policy and implications and contributed to the advancement of knowledge in these areas. Articles mostly focused on health outcomes for families or demographic groups within families, with an emphasis on socio-economic inequalities and inequitable burdens faced. The emphasis over the last decade has been research on chronic or non-communicable health conditions and none on communicable diseases.
