Summary
Veterans seeking compensation for musculoskeletal (MSD) conditions often develop chronic pain and are at high risk for substance misuse. The Investigators propose to test the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment for Pain Management (SBIRT-PM), designed to reduce pain and reduce risky substance use, in part by helping Veterans get comprehensive pain treatment. The study will involve clinicians at a single site contacting Veterans throughout New England by phone to deliver SBIRT-PM counseling in a pragmatic, randomized, clinical trial.

SBIRT-PM
SBIRT-PM involves an initial telephone-delivered session followed by up to three calls to Veterans in a 12-week period to support Veteran engagement in multi-modal non-pharmacological pain care and to motivate those who misuse substances to change this problematic behavior. SBIRT-PM also includes coordination between the SBIRT-PM clinicians and the PACT nurse case manager after the initial session to support these patient outcomes.
