mean pain interference domain measured by PROMIS
PROMIS® (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. Scores are typically between 20-80, but may be 0-100. Any result with higher a higher number is indicating higher pain interference effect.
Time frame: baseline, before intervention
mean Patient Activation Measure (PAM)
Our primary outcome measure is the Patient Activation Measure (PAM). The PAM is a 13-item scale with a 5-point Likert response scale for all questions. Raw scores are scaled to a range of 0-100 with 100 being the highest activation in self- management.
Time frame: baseline, after intervention
percent of participant who respond favorably on the Clinician and Group Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CG CAHPS)
We will assess scores on the Clinician and Group Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CG CAHPS) survey. This is a standardized tool to measure patients' perception of care provided by physicians in an office setting. Specifically, for our analysis will we focus specifically on the individual question to assess communication. We will compare the percentage of participants in the intervention versus control group who respond favorably to this question using a chi-square test of association.

mean depression
PROMIS® (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. Scores are typically between 20-80, but may be 0-100. Any result with higher a higher number is indicating higher depression effect.

mean physical function
PROMIS® (Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System) is a set of person-centered measures that evaluates and monitors physical, mental, and social health in adults and children. It can be used with the general population and with individuals living with chronic conditions. Scores are typically between 20-80, but may be 0-100. Any result with higher a higher number is indicating higher physical function effect.
