Patient Assessment Screening Tool Outcome Registry (Tri-Service)

Abstract

PASTOR is a GOTS system based recommendations from the Pain Management Taskforce (PMTF) to adopt a clinical information system that provides standardized pain assessment with an outcome registry to promote consistency in pain care delivery, and from National Institute of Health (NIH) Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS) to deliver computerized adaptive testing through various information communication modalities and provide decision support for patients and clinical staffs. When deployed, PASTOR will support tracking/reporting of Warrior Transition Care, prescription opioid analgesics usage, poly-pharmacy, and sole prescriber program. PASTOR will also be used to evaluate performance/impact of Pain Departments, Interdisciplinary Pain Management Centers, and pain management programs in Patient Centered Medical Home. It will provide clinicians and MHS decision makers with data related to the appropriateness and effectiveness of a spectrum of Pain Management procedures and techniques. It will also provide a capability to meet emerging Joint Commission requirements for measuring and reporting patient reported outcomes. This initiative will enable more consistent pain treatment; greater accuracy in modeling requirements for pain medicine, personnel, equipment and space, specialty care referrals; and greater fidelity on impact of pain on Traumatic Brian Injury (TBI) and co-morbid behavioral health conditions.
