Institute for Clinical and Economic Review to review certain non-pharmacologic interventions for chronic low back and neck pain in upcoming review
20 March 2017 - The Institute for Clinical and Economic Review will develop a report assessing the comparative clinical effectiveness and value of certain non-pharmacologic, non-invasive interventions for chronic low back and neck pain.
A preliminary list of interventions will be posted as part of a draft scoping document scheduled to be released for public comment on April 10, 2017.
An "Open Input" period begins today, and comments on the topic will be accepted from all interested stakeholders until 5 April 2017 at 5 pm ET. The Open Input period is intended to allow stakeholders to share key information relevant to the development of the scope of the evidence report. During this time, ICER will also contact key patient groups and clinical experts to gain further insights.
