Abstract
The Wisconsin Cancer Pain Initiative was established in 1986 to address the various public and professional barriers to cancer pain management. This report discusses the initiative's model for physician education, which includes increasing factual knowledge, legitimizing cancer pain as an important treatment priority, and developing clinical role models. Our progress in implementing this education model will be discussed.
