I don't think so. The minutes in section T are estimated minutes the resident is expected to receive in 15 days. There is no need to do a correction if the resident is discharged prior to completion of the 15 days.    Jane     ----- Original Message ----- From: MJB To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, February 07, 2004 6:56 AM Subject: Re: Estimating therapy If the estimated therapy to be delivered in section T is not delivered over the next 15 days, then you actually have to do a modification-you can not bill for what you did not deliver. Best to reflect in sect. T only what you now know was actually delivered. Is this poor soul an SE3 anyway?
