Health Affairs Online SUBSCRIBER HELP & SERVICES:

Frequently Asked Questions
about Individual Subscriptions

1. Who is eligible for an Individual Subscription?

Individual subscriptions are for personal use only, and limited to one user of the journal. Individuals may also have access to Health Affairs Online through an Institutional Subscription.

2. Will I receive a password? May I share my password with friends, or is use limited solely to me?

Yes, when you complete the subscription process, you will receive instructions on how to Activate your new subscription via a username and password.. However you are the only one licensed to use this password.

3. What if I forget my password?

We have instructions for what to do if you forget your username or your password. You may generate a new one at Health Affairs Subscriber Services.

4. How can I tell if my institution has subscribed? How do I get my institution to subscribe?

Your institution has the choice of subscribing in print and online (bundled) or online only. If your institution has an online subscription, you will automatically have access to the tables of contents, abstracts, full-text searching, full-text display, PDFs, and Medline links. You'll also see a button at the top of the page confirming you're signed in as part of an institution.

If you would like to have an institutional subscription, please contact your institution's librarian.

5. How can I access Health Affairs Online if I am not a subscriber and I don't have access through an institutional subscription?

You may wish to wish to purchase an Individual print subscription which provides access to the electronic version. Without a subscription you have access to tables of contents, abstracts, and full-text searching (without full-text viewing) at no cost and without having to register. You may also purchase access to individual articles on a pay-per-view basis.
