Pain Management Solutions (PMS) appreciates that commissioning priorities do vary between areas. PMS also has an understanding of the key targets that commissioners have. Below is a list of key points:
Our services can always be managed as a directly bookable service via our N3 connection, visible either on the national Choose & Book menu, or your local Choose & Book menu.
Our services can be commissioned by any of the current procurement methods ( e.g. Any Willing Provider, Practice Based Commissioning).
Alternately services can be provided in one area by integrating the various approaches.
The PMS referral to treatment time average is about 4 weeks. Our treatment pathway facilitates this.
We eliminate inappropriate secondary care referrals (primarily Orthopaedic) and investigations, significantly reducing the overall cost of pain management.
Our philosophy of rehabilitation and early intervention supports you in achieving your targets to address reduction in chronicity.
Our philosophy of providing integrated community-based services supports you in ‘Transforming Community Services’ and redesign of Musculo-skeletal Pathways.
We have robust governance arrangements to ensure the highest standards of clinical practice.
We develop local care pathways and commissioning models tailored to local population needs.
