PMC is comprised of 11 national, large-scale pain trials recruiting in Military Treatment Facilities and VA Medical Centers. An early challenge was to ensure that PMC researchers did not co-enroll participants in multiple, concurrent pain trials. Learn about the strategies taken by the Collaboratory to tackle this challenge and address research-site overlap.

The goal of the Collaboratory is to develop the capacity to implement cost-effective large-scale pragmatic clinical research in military and veteran health care delivery organizations focusing on nonpharmacological approaches to pain management and other comorbid conditions.
