If you only want the default payment, you can do a d/c
prior to assessment, but to get the full payment for that day, you need to do
the 5 day with the ARD the date of discharge, which would be the same as the
admission day.

Hi there,
I have a case wherein we admitted Resident A, on Medicare,
1/6/04 @ 3:00 PM & discharged
to the hospital @ 10:00 PM on the same day. Do I need to do a 5 day
assessment,
and set the Assessment Reference Date on the admission & discharge
date?
Please let me know the most appropriate thing to do & the regulation
regarding this
matter.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Sincerely,
