Question 1: Is "Chinese Health Quality Management" a Chinese core journal/Chinese Science and Technology Core Journal?
Answer: "Chinese Health Quality Management" is a Chinese Science and Technology Core Journal (Statistical Source Journal).
Question 2: What is the approximate processing cycle for manuscripts? How long does it take for a manuscript to be published?
Answer: Approximately two months after manuscript submission, a preliminary result (such as revision request, external review, or rejection) will be available. The specific intended acceptance time is influenced by objective factors such as the quality of manuscript revisions and the progress of external reviews. The manuscript can be published in as quickly as half a year.
Question 3: Is there a template for the letter of introduction from the institution? What should I do if I didn£§t upload it during submission?
Answer: There is no template for the letter of introduction from the institution. You can simply issue a certification document based on the situation of your institution. If you didn£§t upload the letter of introduction during submission, you can supplement and upload it when the editor contacts you for revisions.
Question 4: Are co-first authors and co-corresponding authors allowed?
Answer: Co-first authors or co-corresponding authors are allowed.
Question 5: Does the journal charge page charges, review fees, or other fees?
Answer: The journal only charges page charges, which are calculated based on the word count.
Question 6: How long does it take to receive an electronic invoice after paying the page charges?
Answer: Invoices are generally issued uniformly at the end of the month and can be received at the beginning of the following month.
Question 7: After I modified my submission information, why can£§t I see the submission record now?
Answer: Most likely, the author accidentally removed themselves from the list of "submitting authors," and once removed, the current account can no longer view the manuscript. In this case, you can contact the editorial office by phone, and they can make it visible again through back-end operations.
Question 8: When I submitted my manuscript, the first author was set as the corresponding author by default. Why can£§t I select the corresponding author?
Answer: It may be because the corresponding author has not filled in an email address. You must fill in an email address to be able to select someone as the corresponding author.
Question 9: I uploaded an attachment, but it keeps prompting that it hasn£§t been uploaded or the upload failed.
Answer: This is generally caused by the file being too large (exceeding 20M) or the file name being too long. It may also occur if you selected the file for upload but did not click the "Upload Attachment" button.
