Clinical Trial Summary

Veterans seeking compensation for musculoskeletal (MSD) conditions often develop chronic pain and are at high risk for substance misuse. This study is designed to pilot test the Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment for Pain Management (SBIRT-PM) intervention. SBIRT-PM is designed to reduce pain and reduce risky substance use among veterans applying for VA Benefits for a musculoskeletal condition, in part by helping Veterans get connected to comprehensive pain treatment. This pilot will involve a 2-year period to arrange for SBIRT Counselors at a single site to counsel Veterans throughout New England by phone with SBIRT-PM to test the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention.


Clinical Trial Description

In 2015 alone, 97,223 new Veterans under age 35 began receiving compensation for injuries related to their military service. In total, there are 559,999 post-9/11 Veterans being compensated for back or neck conditions, and a partially overlapping 596,250 for limitation of flexion in joints. Veterans seeking compensation for musculoskeletal conditions often develop chronic pain and are at high risk for substance misuse. Early intervention is needed to arrest worsening pain and risky substance use, particularly among post-9/11 Veterans for whom engagement in non-pharmacological pain treatment has the potential to improve their overall quality of life and spare them the complications of opioid treatments. The service-connection application is an ideal point-of-contact for initiating early intervention treatments for these at-risk Veterans. This study is designed to pilot test the Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment for Pain Management (SBIRT-PM) intervention. SBIRT-PM is designed to reduce pain and reduce risky substance use among veterans applying for VA Benefits for a musculoskeletal condition, in part by helping Veterans get connected to comprehensive pain treatment. This pilot will involve a 2-year period to arrange for SBIRT Counselors at a single site to counsel Veterans throughout New England by phone with SBIRT-PM to test the acceptability and feasibility of the intervention. During the two-years pilot trial, the team will prepare SBIRT-PM for implementation by establishing communication (Relational Coordination is the theoretical framework) between the "hub" where the SBIRT-PM clinician is sited and the "spoke" sites, establishing study-related procedures, and piloting the intervention at each of the eight VA medical centers in New England. ;
