Lisa,
D.A.Ve. is about
accuracy in MDS coding. Initially, it will be educational in
nature. If you are selected for a D.A.Ve. on-site or off-site review,
and if accuracy issues are identified, then training by the project staff will
be the next step. Here are some websites to visit for the history,
etc.
Good luck! It
went operational in all states 1/1/04: cms.internetstreaming.com/maincourses.php
(You can sign up for free courses put on by cms-one of them is D.A.Ve., altho
it was already held; but, you can still download the data for a year
afterwards!) Next: www.cms.hhs.gov/providers/psc/dave
There was a
December 11,
2003 industry call that
will be posted any day at the last website I listed. It isn�t there as
yet, or I am just �surfer challenged� because I don�t see it and I have
checked a few areas.

I know this has been discussed
before, but can anyone tell me anything about this program? If I am
doing what I should be doing this program should not be a concern-it is
to benefit us right? Thanks for all your
support!
