Article Processing Changes
MEDrecerca Publisher is a self-supporting organization and does not receive funding from any institution/government. Hence, the operation of the manuscripts is solely financed by the publication fee i.e. processing and formatting charges, received towards Journal Formatting Services from authors.
The said fees are required to meet Web page maintenance, PDF and Full text, ISSN assigning and Volumes, and Issue release. Being an Open Access, MEDrecerca Publisher does not receive payment for subscription, as the manuscripts are freely accessible over the internet. Having said this, MEDrecerca Publishers doesn’t follow any other fees except some nominal fees towards Journal maintenance.

* Authors who lack the funds to cover publication fees may request a discount. In order to keep publication charges as low as possible, fee discounts are not automatically given but must be approved on a case-by-case basis, and authors from developing and transitional countries are given priority.
1. Why are your charges set at these levels?
All articles published in MEDrecerca are open access. Open Access publishing implies that all readers, anywhere in the world, are allowed unrestricted to full text of articles, immediately on publication in MEDrecerca Journals. The Article Publication Charges pay for the editorial and production costs of the journal, for hosting the website, publishing articles online, preparing HTML , PDF and XML versions of the articles and submitting the articles in electronic citation database like CrossRef.
Our financial goals are to:
- Recover capitalization costs;
- Produce sufficient revenue to allow for a sustainable and scalable publishing program, under continuous development;
- Bend the publication-charge cost downward over time.
2. When do I pay Article Publication Charges?
Article Publication Charges will have to be paid after the manuscript has been peer reviewed and accepted for publication. The corresponding author will be responsible for arranging the payments
