What are cranberry tablets? Never heard of
them. Would they be considered herbal products? If so, they should
not be coded in section O. Sounds like food, maybe I'm just
hungry.

I have always counted vaccines in section O. I have a question
tho. How should cranberry tablets be counted? Should they be in
section O as well? Holly McGran <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

discusses about antigens and vaccines under Injections. Then under
clarifications, last bullet, it states: "If a test or vaccination is
provided on one day and another vaccine provided on the next day, code "2"
for the number of days when the resident received injections. If both
injections were administered on the same day, code "1". Also include these
medications when coding Item O1." > Sounds as if they should be coded
as medications also. > > -----Original Message----- >
