Section I-3 is present so that we can enter diagnoses for the resident when
there is no checkbox in sections I-1 or I-2 for a specific diagnosis that the
resident has. If there are boxes in I-3 leftover after you have entered
the diagnoses that have no checkbox, then you can use the remaining boxes in I-3
to further clarify a diagnosis already in a checkbox. An example of this
is "cancer". There are many different types of cancer so it would be
appropriate to enter the specific ICD-9 for the particular cancer diagnosis for
your resident. (You would also check cancer in the checkbox.)
"Anemia" is another one that often is clarified in I-3.
