    AbstractThe management of patients with chronic refractory head pain remains a treatment challenge. Treatment focus should be multidisciplinary as patients evolve into a deteriorated status with psychologic, social, vocational, and cognitive dysfunction. The neuropsychologist will gather premorbid and comorbid information, assess cognitive functioning, and be involved in every behavioral medicine and treatment decision. The patient with post-traumatic head pain copes with head injury sequelae. Issues related to worker's compensation, insurance, disability decisions, and litigation are intrinsic to these patient groups.
