TARGET AUDIENCE
This activity is intended for physicians and allied health clinicians.

STATEMENT OF NEED
There are a vast number of challenges in the proper differentiation, assessment, and management of chronic pain (specifically with osteoarthritis [OA] and low back pain [LBP]), and how key facets of pain pathways/pain pathophysiology can help to inform these assessments. There is a need to increase the knowledge and confidence of physiatrists and PCPs (including internal medicine, NP, and PAs) who manage these patients to know the advances in current and emerging management strategies, including the use of a multimodal approach to therapies. An emphasis for a greater integrated multidisciplinary approach for delivering quality coordinated care within and across settings together, in order to improve pain management and patient care in the community is also needed.
