Headache is the most common persistent symptom after concussion and one of the most common complaints in neurology. Either way, the visit captures one day and the patient describes the rest from memory. The Headache Program measures the weeks in between.

What it includes

HIT-6 on schedule. Sent to the patient's phone on the cadence you set, banded automatically, plotted over time.
The symptoms that travel with headache. PSQI for sleep, PHQ-9 and GAD-7 for mood, PCSS for post-traumatic patients.
Cognitive tracking where indicated. SDMT and Digit Span for chronic headache patients with cognitive complaints. See chronic headache and cognition.
Telehealth follow-up. Medication changes reviewed against a trend instead of a recollection.

Two populations

Post-traumatic headache. Runs inside the Concussion Program with HIT-6 added. See headache after concussion.

Chronic headache without injury. Runs on its own for neurology and headache practices.

What gets documented

Enrollment (98975). Engagement days (98978). Review and contact minutes (98979, 98980/98981). Educational, not coding advice.

FAQ

Is post-traumatic headache the same as migraine or tension headache?

It presents in both phenotypes. HIT-6 tracks disability regardless; phenotyping and treatment are yours.

How often should headache be assessed after a concussion?

Weekly during active recovery, on the same schedule as the PCSS check-in. Less often as it settles.

When should I refer to a headache specialist?

Disability that isn't improving on trend after treatment changes, or red flags on exam. The trend is on the dashboard.

Can headache monitoring support RTM billing on its own?

Scheduled HIT-6 and mood/sleep screens delivered through the platform are the monitoring device; review and telehealth time is logged. Whether a month qualifies is your billing determination.

Who runs it?

Your staff on Self-Serve. Juliet Mott's team on Managed.
