Abstract

Opioid use and chronic pain are prevalent in the veteran population. Collaborative Care enhances coordination between patients and their care teams and Motivational Interviewing (MI) is a communication style designed to facilitate behavior change. This study evaluated the use of Collaborative Care with MI (CCMI) with patients with chronic pain and high-risk prescription opioid use.
