I thought you only checked per diem in addition to med A if resident is into days 21 on/days that medicare only pays at 80%?
-----Original Message----- From: C Hannant [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, December 06, 2003 11:18 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: payor status the most important answer is who is paying for the bed during this time frame. so make sure you do "per diem" on all fulls. this question will probably go away since many nurses don't understand this. you can ask your bookkeeper if you have one who will assist you. cher Melinda de la Cruz wrote: >how do you code payor status when your resident is >medicare A? medicare per diem only or both medicare >per diem and medicare A? > > >===== >Melinda de la Cruz, R.N., B.S.N., RAC-C >MDS Coordinator > >*******CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE******* This message and any attachment >are confidential and may be privileged or otherwise protected from >disclosure and solely for the use of the person (s) or entity to whom >it is intended.
