Begin your chronic pain evaluation

The following questionnaires are used by our staff in evaluating the effects of chronic pain on life functioning. They are not meant to be complete or represent a full evaluation. They must be interpreted by our staff to be correctly understood. Three questionnaires require that you first print them, fill them out and then fax or mail them back to Pacifica.

Unused information sent to us is stored for 180 days or less and then discarded. Our staff will contact you for discussion within 48 hours of receipt of documents. There is no charge for completion of these questionnaires or staff response to them.

All information received is confidential and if sent electronically is encrypted. We follow the medical guidelines of security and privacy formulated by HIPAA.

These questionnaires are not a substitute for proper medical diagnosis or treatment. Only your doctor can diagnose and recommend treatment.

    If you complete the Brief Evaluation and decide to then do the Comprehensive Evaluation you do not have to repeat the first three questionnaires.

    Each electronic questionnaire must be entirely completed at one time or it must be started over from the beginning. The Comprehensive Evaluation takes about 60-80 minutes and the Brief Evaluation takes about 30-45 minutes.
