Emerging players

• PLOS Medicine: Open-access journal with growing primary care and health services research content. Represents the open-access publishing model that competes with traditional subscription journals for authors who prioritize broader reach.
• SAGE Open Medicine: SAGE's open-access broad medical journal, which includes primary care and health services research. Competes for authors and institutional reach with a digital-first open access model.
