Multi disciplinary team meetings are done for patients:

1. Patients having chronic pain for more than a year that significantly impacts their life

2.  on daily pain medications, or are requesting these medicines

3. all patients having an implant, such as spinal cord stimulator or intrathecal pump.

Multi disciplinary is initiated with a psychological evaluation with Dr. Halpern. Following the Psychology evaluation, a team with the Michigan Pain Specialists providers, Dr. Halpern, psychology staff, and  Pain recovery solutions make a Plan of Care. In this plan, often providers are consulted to assist in treatment scenarios.
