RE: Type of Review needed?

The MC 5 day does not impact your OBRA schedule.  You will still need to do your annual assessment when it is due.   Brenda W.

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.     Tanya Jordan, RNAC Homewood Retirement Centers Williamsport, MD Fax 301-582-1819 Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo!
