OMB Control Number: 2900-New.

Type of Review: New data collection.

Abstract: The data collected on VA Forms 10-0532a-k will be used to: (1) Assess the effectiveness of patient care management (PCM) in increasing patients' functionality, improving quality of life, and improving paint control relative to usual care and (2) to assess the impact of PCM on depression and anxiety relative to usual care. This data collection's model has been designed to serve patients by augmenting existing pain management interventions (e.g., medications, physical therapy) by teaching pain care management skills that patients can incorporate into their daily activities. VA will use the information to evaluate the effectiveness of the intervention so that it can most effectively be applied to future patients with chronic pain problems.
