One of the main barriers is the delays to see a publicly funded health professional. New models of care must therefore be developed to ensure better access. We have previously shown that not all patients with a MSKD need to be closely followed by a health professional as for a large proportion of patients simply educating them is enough to resolve their MSKD. A stepped care model where education would be given first before deciding if patients need a more extensive follow-up should be explored. This project will compare the effectiveness of a Stepped Care Model to that of the two most widely used models of care: Usual Medical Care and Usual Rehabilitation Care. We think that a Stepped Care Model will be as effective to reduce functional limitations, but will lead to lower healthcare costs.\n\nAdults (n=369) with a MSKD will be randomly assigned to one of the intervention groups: Stepped Care, Usual Medical Care (physician-led intervention: e.g., advice\u002Feducation, pharmacological pain management), or Usual Rehabilitation Care (physiotherapist-led intervention: e.g., advice\u002Feducation, exercises). Participants in the Stepped Care Group will take part in two education sessions during the first 6 weeks. After 6 weeks, those who still have clinically important symptoms will receive follow-up rehabilitation interventions, while those who don't will be considered recovered and will have no further intervention. Primary (functional limitations) and secondary (e.g., pain, quality of life) outcomes will be assessed at baseline, and at 6, 12 and 24 weeks, and costs estimate will be established for each model of care. Knowing the urgent need for an overhaul of services to reduce wait times, the Stepped Care Model proposed could be a solution to improve access to health services without compromising quality of care.",[88,89,90,91],"Low Back Pain","Neck Pain","Anterior Knee Pain Syndrome","Rotator-cuff Related Shoulder Pain",[93,94,95,96,36],"Stepped-Care","Rehabilitation","Musculoskeletal Disorders","Education","2025-02-11",{"date":99,"type":100},"2025-02-18","ACTUAL",{"date":102,"type":100},"2025-01-31",{"date":104,"type":82},"2028-07-31",{"name":5,"class":6},1]
