Description
Lincolnshire CCGs are considering procuring a community based pain management service. The aim of the service is patients self-managing in primary care. A key objective will be to assess and treat patients within a multidisciplinary model; having access to a range of disciplines and high quality interventions that can deal with the physical, psychological, social and behavioural needs of patients with chronic pain. We expect development of a local network for managing patients with chronic pain. Initially the focus will be MSK conditions (including neurological) with a view to expanding the service beyond MSK Neurological conditions.
In 15/16 the 4 CCGs coded the following Pain Management activity: • 3,355 admissions • Delivered 15,047 outpatient appointments with 8556 pain management procedures • 3127 inpatient appointments • Prescribed 276,159 opioids • Prescribed (excluding Opioid analgesics) 3.4m items We are looking for ideas on what should / could be delivered in the community.
