Some states do require submission of those assessments....but you still would have to start over with the assessments

I agree with Brenda.  We also have the certified - non-certified bed issue and it's a real headache when residents go back and forth. 

 

Basically even if you did the assessment 6 weeks ago you didn't transmit to the state so the State Database has no record of this assessment.  In order to get the resident into the system you will have to do an Admission Assessment and follow the OBRA/PPS schedule from there.

Thanks for the input�yes the resident was in a noncertified bed and I had done an annual assessment 6 weeks ago (which was not transmitted).  You are right this is SQUIRRELY!!!   ; >

I also work with residents who are in noncertified beds.  If this resident has been in a noncertified bed, then you have not been transmitting their data to the state.  You will need to do a full admission comprehensive assessment.  Follow the OBRA schedule as well as the PPS schedule.  I know this sounds squirrely but this is what is mandated.  You will also need to do a new section AB/AC since this is an admission assessment.
