About The Study: Remote, scalable cognitive behavioral therapy-based chronic pain treatments (delivered either via telehealth or self-completed modules online) resulted in modest improvements in pain and related functional/quality-of-life outcomes compared with usual care among individuals with high-impact chronic pain. These lower-resource cognitive behavioral therapy-based chronic pain treatments could improve availability of evidence-based nonpharmacologic pain treatments within health care systems.
