AbstractSpecialized pain management centres have been shown to achieve significant clinical efficacy and a relevant reduction of direct and indirect costs. Furthermore, only patients are admitted after conventional therapies failed. The results of specialized pain management might be even more impressive if patients were treated earlier. Parameters of cost efficacy in pain treatment include pain reduction, reduction of drug intake, increase of physical activity, improvement of quality of life, reduction of inability to work, avoidance of early retirement.
