No specific assessment has been made of the potential benefit to people with chronic pain of receiving an annual review for their pain management services.<\/p>
<\/p>
Whilst ultimately a matter for local processes and individual clinicians, annual reviews of patients with long term conditions or ongoing medication needs are a routine part of patient care. Annual reviews are also a key feature in guidance on the management of long-term diseases and disorders produced by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), such as \u2018Neuropathic pain in adults\u2019, and in clinical guidance produced by other organisations. NICE is in the process of developing a new clinical guideline \u2018Chronic pain: assessment and management\u2019, due for publication in August 2020.<\/p>
