I would not want to be in your shoes if/when the state catches on to that plan. It certainly reeks of fraud.

Does anyone actually do this? and what are your thoughts on this? /---------------------------------------------------------- The Case Mix Discussion Group is a free service of the American Association of Nurse Assessment Coordinators "Committed to the Assessment Professional" Be sure to visit the AANAC website.
