Pain

Keep long-term pain care safe, between every visit.

Interval Health checks in with pain patients by text, scores pain and function, tracks opioid use and runs stimulator trial diaries. Your team sees who needs attention, and the payer evidence builds itself.

For pain practices managing long-term medications and procedures.
The problem

Monitoring and paperwork take too much of the day

Monitoring done by hand

Pain and function scores and opioid totals live in notes and spreadsheets, so a slow change is easy to miss.

Trial evidence built at the end

Diaries and the relief calculation get pulled together after the trial, when the payer is waiting.

Risk that shows up late

A rise in pain interference or a change in opioid use is often noticed at the visit, not the month it began.

How it works

From monthly check-in to payer summary

  1. 1

    Monthly check-ins by text

    Patients answer the three PEG questions on pain, enjoyment of life and general activity. A few minutes, no app or password.

  2. 2

    Opioid monitoring

    PEG scores and MME totals are charted over time. A flag appears when the average rises across three check-ins, and you set the threshold.

  3. 3

    Stimulator trial diaries

    Patients text a pain score each evening of the trial. Interval compares it with their baseline and checks the 50% relief criterion.

  4. 4

    A summary ready at lead removal

    The payer summary is written from the diary, including any complications reported. The doctor records the implant decision.

Example · Long-term opioid monitoring

Four monthly check-ins, one early flag

What your team sees for one patient over four months. The month 3 rise raised a review flag, and the doctor looked at it at the next visit.

What you get

What changes for your practice

Monitoring that runs itself

Scores and opioid totals arrive on schedule and are charted, with urine screens prepared by staff for the doctor to sign.

Early warning

A rising pain or function score reaches your team the month it happens, not at the next visit.

Trial evidence that builds itself

Diaries, the baseline comparison and the relief check are ready the day the leads come out.

Everything in Psychiatry

Scored intake, weekly check-ins after changes, safety escalation, refills, scheduling and payments.

The doctor decides

Interval collects, scores and flags. The doctor makes every prescribing decision, every refill call and the implant decision.
