Another place you can find this information is in the RAI Manual Chapter 6
- page 6-4. "Facilities cannot submit Medicare Part A claims until the
assessment has been accepted into the CMS data base, and they must use the
RUG-III code as validated by CMS when bills are filed"

Could someone please tell me where to find the rule about not being able to
bill for Medicare A services until after the MDS has been transmitted.
Thanks,
Jen
