A joint student paper with 50-50 contributions is acceptable. Previous winners are not eligible. Papers will be reviewed by an International Committee chaired by Bruce Hollingsworth.

The Prize will be free registration for the virtual 2021 iHEA Congress to present the paper in a Student Prize Special Organised Session chaired by the iHEA President, or Chair of the Prize Committee, a cash prize and the offer (if the author wishes, and the paper is unpublished) of potential fast track publication in Health Economics, subject to Editorial approval.
