Keep in
mind that you have TWO assessment schedules, one for PPS and one for OBRA. Since
you did not combine the next OBRA that was due w/ your PPS (5
day) assessment, you Will have to do the Annual that is due in
Jan.

Subject: Type of Review needed?I have confused myself and need some clarification on what type of review to do now.I have a resident that went to the hospital on 12/2 and returned on 12/5, We skilled him for medication adjustment and Behavior Management. We did a Medicare 5 day on 12/9, we did not do a sign change assessment. He was no longer skilled around 12/14 so his Medicare was cut. What I need to know is, do we have to do an annual assessment in Jan or do we start the schedule over with the Medicare 5 day assessment?. If he had not been skilled for those few days he would be due his annual review.
