The Innovative Journal of Medical and Healthcare Research follows a rigorous editorial and peer review process to ensure the quality and integrity of published research. Our editorial process is outlined as follows:

Submission

Authors submit their manuscripts via our online submission system or by email to the editor. Each submission is initially screened by the editorial team for completeness and adherence to journal guidelines.

Peer Review

All submitted manuscripts undergo a double-blind peer review process, where both the authors' and reviewers' identities are concealed from each other. This ensures an unbiased evaluation of the work.

• Each manuscript is assigned to at least two independent reviewers with expertise in the relevant field.
• Reviewers assess the manuscript for originality, significance, methodology, and overall contribution to the field.
• Authors may be asked to revise their manuscripts based on reviewer feedback. The revised manuscript is then re-evaluated before a final decision is made.

Decision

The editorial team makes the final decision regarding the acceptance or rejection of the manuscript based on reviewer recommendations. Authors are notified of the decision and provided with feedback from the reviewers.

After an article is submitted our review process typically takes up to one week to reach a decision, and if  an article is accepted publication may follow within an additional week, totaling approximately two weeks.

Publication

Accepted manuscripts are scheduled for publication and made available to the public in accordance with our open access policy.
