Rapid Access Clinics for Low Back Pain

Qui sommes-nous ?

Back pain is one of the most common reasons patients see doctors and is responsible for more than half of all opioid prescriptions. In the midst of an opioid crisis, this program has been shown to reduce opioid prescriptions as well as reduce reliance on diagnostic imaging and unnecessary surgical assessments. Access is only through primary care referral and a campaign is starting up to increase primary care participation in the south east.
