“…CP patients undergoing multidisciplinary treatment report greater pain relief with more realistic expectations, adherence to medication plans and follow-up appointments, and better health literacy about pain, as compared to patients treated by a single provider (12)(13)(14). In chronic pain, multidisciplinary care has the potential to reduce opioid use and improve patients' quality of life and satisfaction with treatment (9,15). Multi-disciplinary CP teams may include neurologists, anesthesiologists with specialty training in pain, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists, physical or occupational therapists, functional neurosurgeons, spine surgeons, social workers, psychologists, nurses and midlevel providers.…”
