•Integrate Diagnosis decision aids into history-taking

•Migraine Action Plan integrates PowerChart management orders with patient handout

Migraine Action Plan Potential

•Future patient feedback into chart

•Recent HA pattern

•Treatment response

•Adverse effects

Headache Pathway1.Consult: Hx, Tx history, education, buy-in2.Diagnosis: screen for HA type3.Severity assessment: Frequency, Pain severity, Impact on pt’s life, Non-HA symptoms, Patient factors4.Treatment Plan: Establish goals, Behavioral therapy, Acute therapy, Possible prophylactic therapy, Complementary therapy5.Follow-up: Assess outcomes
