Corey,
That is exactly what I do on a daily basis is keep up with current orders. We use the software MDI. It does pull forward all mds information on to the 672/802, however some need to be input manually and if you want it current as you said , it needs to be done daily which I do. Basically what i was trying to figure out is where to manually code RA services on 672/802 as they are not automatically pulled off of the MDS. So i thought that "Skilled services" would be a place for it, but wasnt' goint to start inputting manually until I knew for sure that this was correct. Thus the question for wether RA services can be under the "skilled services" on the 672. Thanks Jen in KC

I hope you are speaking about changing the computer print-out for the
802/.672, because despite you're posting this 3 times, it still doesn't make
any sense. Section F131 on the 672 report "restorative services" provided
by or under the direction of a therapist. Technically, your computer should
compile this information from section P of the MDS. If you want to alter
the format of the print-out, some computer programs will allow you to
collect your report and then edit it. Unfortunately, you must do this
everytime you wish to do a print out or the MDS's done since the last
collection will be left out. Since the corrections, such as removing a
cath, are not saved after editing, you need to do the whole thing over
again. Trust me, it's a lot easier to do this unpleasant, time consuming,
regulatory task daily from a collection of the daily orders. I have tried
every way under the sun and the associated planets!
