A broad cross-section of pain programs are eligible for accreditation. The purpose of the National Pain Data Bank is to collect information about patient demographics, history, pain profile, functional status, quality of life and daily living, return to work, treatment satisfaction and cost of care. A quarterly report of the data is sent to all participating programs. Participating programs have found this data useful in determining treatment outcomes, in creating more cost-effective treatment protocols, in creating marketing strategies and in working with third party payers. The purpose of Second Opinion Utilization Review is to create unbiased reports for clinicians that would be available for use in record review, institutional privileges, arbitration, medico-legal matters, reimbursement disputes, malpractice and licensing disputes.
Experts are available for depositions and trials.
