Implications of ICD-11 on Health Care Financial Resources

Panel Discussion

Abstract Description

Dr. Christine Greco will provide insight on the implications of ICD-11 on healthcare financial resources and reimbursements. She will discuss how the application of a more accurate and comprehensive diagnostic classification system for chronic pain can facilitate improved clinical communication among providers and improved outcomes research in chronic pain which can impact healthcare resource allocation and health care policies to address chronic pain. She will discuss how ICD-11 could result in an improved understanding of the financial needs necessary for the multidisciplinary treatment of chronic pain. Additionally, she will propose strategies how we can advocate for continued and adequate health care coverage for treatment of chronic pain in children and adolescents in the future.
