MDS transmission has
been required for all OBRA assessments since 6/22/98. Have you
received a citation in the mail for failure to transmit? It is always a
widespread scope and the initial cite is a “C”, and it climbs the severity
ladder on the second cite, etc.

Subject: Newly Certified
Beds
We are converting
quite a few beds from non-certified to certified. We have done MDSs on
the people in the non-cert beds but have not transported to the state.
Will we have to do admission assessments on these long term care residents now
although they may have been in the same bed for years?
