Brief summary (from the registry)
Chronic pain impacts about 20% of US Adults. Though non-pharmacologic, integrative pain management therapies are now considered first-line treatment by clinical guidelines, these therapies are still rarely covered by health insurance and therefore inaccessible to lower-income individuals. The Integrative Medical Group Visit (IMGV) program was developed to offer low-income, diverse patients with chronic pain an introduction to integrative pain management approaches, through a model that is covered by health insurance under existing billing codes. An initial pragmatic randomized control trial found that IMGV led to significant improvement in mental health related quality of life and lower use of high-cost care. However, there has been little research investigating the implementation of IMGV, and none in Federally-Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs), where the program was initially designed to be implemented. In this study, the investigators test strategies to implement IMGV in FQHCs, including training and coaching clinic staff, and measure the effectiveness of the IMGV on health outcomes for patients with chronic pain.
