MIBAC Provider Pain Attitude &
Program Satisfaction Data
PCP Pain Attitude Changes
Changing behavior begins with changing beliefs
The Pain Attitudes and Beliefs Scale (PABS) is a measure of the clinician's perceptions about musculoskeletal pain and how well these align with current evidence.
Many clinicians have a biomedical view of pain, which has contributed to the runaway costs and poor outcomes in spine care, including the opioid crisis.
A biopsychosocial view is more consistent with prevailing evidence, and results in more appropriate care.
Spine Care Partners training helps transition clinicians away from a purely biomedical view and toward a biopsychosocial view.
Our data demonstrate that this transition consistently occurs as a result of the training.
