What Is The Rapid Access Clinics Low Back Pain Program?
The RAC Low Back Pain program (formerly known as ISAEC) was introduced in Ontario in 2018 as part of the Ministry of Health and Long Term Care's vision for musculoskeletal care. The purpose of the program is to provide individuals with rapid assessments of their low back pain by advanced practice providers in order to provide them with evidence-based self-care and education. The goal of the program is to prevent the development of chronic low back pain as well as to reduce unnecessary tests and unwarranted referrals to a specialist. Our clinic is designated as a site for performing assessments under this program. Click here to learn more about the program and how to be referred.
