Optimizing telehealth pain care after COVID-19 2020-08-20 .txt text/plain 5918 295 33 These changes have afforded an opportunity to develop new ways of operating and a glimpse of how life could be for pain services under a "new normal." 81 Importantly, telehealth has the potential to transform pain management, particularly for those with complex pain care needs living remotely from pain facilities or in low-resource settings, removing barriers to multidisciplinary pain management delivered in a collaborative, interdisciplinary way-the optimal treatment approach for chronic pain. 19 Based on telehealth's demonstrated ability to improve access, collect and interpret health data, and provide educational consultative support for care by multiple medical disciplines, and considering the recent surge in implementation, there may be a case for a more permanent response beyond COVID-19. 77 At our institution (UW) pre-COVID, a pain management telehealth intervention was implemented in collaboration with state health agencies to directly address community primary care prescriber queries through an E-Health telephonic "hotline." 91 Calls are answered by a specialty-trained pain management pharmacist, supported by a pain medicine physician when needed. ./cache/cord-331165-2yn1n3eq.txt ./txt/cord-331165-2yn1n3eq.txt
