Over the past decade, the journal Économie et Statistique has devoted two special issues to health economics. After the special issues published in 2013 and 2016, this Thematic Section brings together a selection of articles from the 41^st Journées des économistes de la santé français (JESF, Annual congress of French health economists) held at the University of Poitiers in December 2019.
