IJQHC Communications is an open-access, peer-reviewed, international journal that publishes research related to quality and safety in health care, with a focus on implementation science, for a worldwide readership. 

The journal publishes papers in all disciplines related to the quality and safety of health care, including health services research, health care evaluation, technology assessment, health economics, utilization review, cost containment and nursing care research, as well as protocols and clinical research related to the quality of care.  IJQHC Communications publishes original, de novo submissions, as well as submissions cascaded from International Journal for Quality in Health Care. 

The journal is truly interdisciplinary and includes contributions from representatives of all health professions such as doctors, nurses, quality assurance professionals, managers, politicians, social workers and therapists, as well as researchers from health-related backgrounds.

The journal also contains news of ISQua, including announcements of forthcoming courses, symposia and congresses.
