Study Summary

Adults over 65 years of age are at higher risk of experiencing chronic pain and adverse events from opioids and opioid use disorder (OUD). Older adults are more likely to inadequately report their pain due to age-related health, which may lead to undertreatment of pain. In the last two decades, opioid prescriptions to treat chronic pain among older adults increased at a rate of nine times what it was previously. This surge is accompanied with a drastic increase of older adults visiting emergency departments due to opioid abuse, misuse, overdose, and addictions to heroin and cocaine. In consequence, chronic pain, opioids, and OUD have become a major crisis in the United States among older adults. The I-COPE program is an intervention that offers providers a set of smart tools for a more effective and efficient geriatric pain, opioid, and OUD management. The aim of the I-COPE program is to evaluate integration of shared decision-making, patient-centered clinical decision support tools, and Project ECHO® to address the critical need to integrate effective treatment for older adults with chronic pain, opioid use, and OUD. Patient-centered clinical decision support (PCCDS) tools provide clinicians with information presented at the right time and tailored to the individual patient, improving communications, care, and patient-provider satisfaction. Shared decision making (SDM) is a highly effective collaborative framework when there are many choices and there is uncertainty about the optimal treatment choice. Project ECHO® is a tested model for delivery of subspecialized medical knowledge to community clinicians. The research into these strategies is supported by the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) through the opioid action plan (OAP) initiative. Based on the survey responses the PCCDS will develop a list of pain treatments that are preferable for older adults to use, based on their individual histories. From the PCCDS, an individualized patient action pl
