Patty,
That's okay.  The purpose of an OMRA is to reset the payment rate from a  Rehab to a Nursing RUG after ALL therapies are out.  If your Nursing rate has already kicked in  because there isn't enough therapy to capture a rehab rate, then you will not have to do an OMRA, even after ST discontinues.
 
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply - but I still don't understand - the new rugs generated
by the next assess will be grouping for tube feeding - even though ST will
still be there.  Somehow it seems wrong.   Thanks for the help.  PQ
