I have a question that I am just trying to get a consensus of opinions about on H1a bowel coding.

If a resident had two episodes of bowel incontinence in week 1 and no (zero) episodes in week 2 would that be coded as 1,2 or 3.

So far I am getting a 1 because it did not happen at all the second week from those who care concerned of a payment audit and 2 from those who are concerned about a state audit.

Please include your reasoning behind your answer.

Thx in advance!
