I thought that when you signed at R2b on an admission assessment, you were signing that the RAP's and MDS were completed, and then you had 7 days to complete the care plans. For the instance cited in the email, she stated that they were (the RAP's) completed by day 21, making these assessments after admission, in which case the RAP's would ned to be done by day 14 at the latest. For an annual assessment you have ARD + 14 days, but not later than VB2 of the previous year (not more than 366 days.)
Am I missing something here, AGAIN????

The raps have to be completed by the date in Vb2. This is the date that the RN signs and verifies that the raps have been completed.

Rap;s neet to be completed by the day the MDS is signed at R2B, and you then have another 7 days to get the care plans completed. They might not need to be ON THE CHART by day 21, but they do need to be available to clinical staff.

RAPs, which should include your decision to careplan, are to be completed by day 14 for an Admission OBRA MDS.
RAI User's Manual VB2:
Date that the RN coordinating the RAP assessment process certifies that the RAPs have been completed. The RAP review must be completed no later than day 14 from the admission date for an Admission assessment and within 14 days of the Assessment Reference Date (A3a) for an Annual assessment, Significant Change in Status assessment, or a Significant Correction of a Prior Full assessment. This date is considered the date of completion for the RAI (i.e., the date used to determine compliance with Federal time frames for assessment and the date that drives future due dates for when the RAI needs to be completed). (p. 3-238)
The Careplans are to be completed no later than day 21.

A center in the area got cited for "not having the RAPS on the chart in a
timely basis." Do they need to be actually on the chart by day 21? Our
procedure is that they are complete by day 21 and in the care plan nurse's
box along with the MDS until she completes the care plan 7 days later. She
then posts the RAPS and MDS and the care plans go to our DON for signature
(SB 1202 in Florida). After they are signed, they go to the chart. Do we
need to change our procedure and have them on the chart earlier?
