Survey Says....re section G

[Kathy Archibald]

Just finished our survey, and I was cited for not coding section G ROM accurately, and not coding contractions on 672.  My question here is...can I do a significant correction of a prior assessment to correct section G, or can I wait until the next MDS.  I am pretty sure the answer will be do a correction, but the surveyor told me to wait until the next MDS.  Surveyors told me that even though the resident has passive range of motion in the joint, because they can't do active ROM I need to code as contracture.
