According to the U.S. Pain Foundation, more than 50 million Americans live with chronic pain, yet traditional care often fails to provide real solutions.
On this episode of Diagnosing Healthtech, Jennie Shulkin, co-founder and CEO of Override Health, joins us to discuss how Override is addressing this often “forgotten” patient population who are often told nothing can be done for them. Jennie will discuss Override’s unique virtual interdisciplinary approach to pain management.
In this episode, we discuss:
-The challenges of chronic pain management and why an interdisciplinary approach is the key to success
-The historical context of pain treatment, how opioids changed the landscape, and why having non-opioid alternatives is so important
-Strategies for integrating virtual care into existing healthcare systems and workflows
-The key benefits of virtual care for patients with chronic conditions compared to the traditional, in-person care
