This project addresses the significant challenge of providing evidence-based non-pharmacologic pain management to rural-dwelling Veterans in the VA healthcare system who have chronic pain. For this preparatory phase (UG3), the investigators will conduct a single-arm pilot study of 40 rural VA patients with chronic pain to assess study feasibility (recruitment and retention), intervention feasibility (fidelity of intervention delivery and participant engagement rates), acceptability, and effectiveness at addressing pre-defined capabilities, opportunities and motivations.

Pain is a complex biophysical, psychological, and social condition and there is a growing evidence base to support several complementary and integrative health (CIH) approaches, which can address pain in a more holistic way. While the VA has become a leader in advancing CIH through its Whole Health Initiative, there remain many barriers, especially for rural patients. This pilot study will assess the feasibility of an innovative telehealth evidence-based intervention for rural VA patients with chronic pain: the Reaching Rural Veterans: Applying Mind-Body Skills for Pain Using a Whole Health Telehealth Intervention (RAMP). RAMP was developed with multiple-levels of VA stakeholders (including rural patients). It was designed to deliver multiple CIH self-management strategies (pain education, mindfulness, pain specific exercises, and cognitive behavioral strategies) in one intervention, to overcome existing barriers to care and improve rural Veterans' pain and important biopsychosocial outcomes.
