Next special issue of ACP Hospitalist open for submissions

This year's theme is memorable inpatient encounters. Submit your essay by Sept. 22.


It's that time of year again. ACP Hospitalist is looking for submissions from ACP members for our next special issue. We want to read about an inpatient encounter that had a meaningful impact on you. Did someone you treated impart a lasting life lesson? Or maybe a conversation about care changed the way you think? Please send your original submission of 1,000 words or less by Monday, Sept. 22, by email to acphospitalist@acponline.org.

All submissions should be original and should not have been previously published or currently under consideration elsewhere. Any patients and colleagues who are mentioned should not be identifiable or should have given their permission for publication. Selected submissions will be edited by ACP Hospitalist staff and published Dec. 3, 2025; authors will be notified of their selection by early October.
