1 04e SCHEDULE 2 THE SERVICES A. Service Specifications This is a non-mandatory model template for local population. Commissioners may retain the structure below, or may determine their own in accordance with the NHS Standard Contract Technical Guidance. Service Specification No. Service Commissioner Lead Provider Lead Period Date of Review Community Chronic Pain Management Service 1. Population Needs 1.1 National context The British Pain Society National Audit 1 (November 2011) describes pain as a complex bio psychosocial experience. Pain that persists longer than expected can be difficult to accept and to treat. Most people are able to manage their pain effectively; some require referral to specialist pain services. The definition of a specialist pain service for the purpose of coding in the UK is described as the diagnosis and management of complex pain disorders, requiring a multidisciplinary approach. The British Society National Pain Audit estimated prevalence of chronic pain at 6.4%, annual incidence of 8.3% and annual recovery of 5.4%. Research evidence and the resultant policy guidance that has emerged in the last 30 years for pain services in the UK have clearly indicated that the most effective approach for pain services is multidisciplinary working. 1.2 Local context Ealing Joint Strategic Needs Assessment 2 projected that White ethnic group population is expected to have a small drop in numbers between 2010 and 2025 (from 167,000 to 163,900), but would then rise again to 2010 levels by For all other ethnicities the projections show a steady rise in numbers over the 30 years period: Asian/Asian British by 41%, Black/Black British by 49%, Chinese by 38% and population of other ethnic origin by 87%. It is estimated that by 2020 there will be a 19.5% rise in the number of people over 65 years of age, and a 48% rise in the number of people over 85 in Ealing. The population is very diverse with a steady rise projected for BAME groups at 52% 3. The prevalence of musculoskeletal disorders rises with age, and is higher in women than men at all ages. One-third of the population over 75 will have a chronic musculoskeletal

2 problem. The long term musculoskeletal can be divided into three exemplar areas to allow local planning for primary and secondary prevention. Ealing CCG currently does not have community chronic management service which is a known gap and highlighted in the Ealing Joint Strategic Needs Assessment (JSNA) In addition, both Ealing and Northwick Park hospitals do not have a chronic pain management service, therefore, Ealing patients are referred to Imperial, Hillingdon and Chelsea & Westminster hospitals.

Applicable quality requirements and CQUIN goals 5.1 Applicable Quality Requirements (See Schedule 4A-C) Not applicable 6. Self-Care and Patient/Carer Information Patient self-care must be promoted through education and supported self-management plans. A variety of tools and techniques should be utilised to support patients in understanding their, what the treatment plan may be and that they are involved along the pathway of care. A specific focus on patient support and care planning for patients with long term is essential. On discharge from the Service, patients should receive care-planning support, supported by a self-management care plan. This will describe the patient s self-care action plan and a copy will be held by the patient, the GP as well as the Service. The care plan should be developed jointly with a patient, respecting the specialist opinion and advice, and be inclusive of maintenance, exercise and other relevant advice (e.g. diet advice). More complex patient s care plans may be uploaded on to a shared care record system with access by secondary care with the consent of patients. 7.
