When
you have to restart the Medicare assessment schedule, you have started a new
Medicare stay. Even though it was just a few days they were discharged and then
readmitted to Medicare. Since it is a "new stay" you would start day one and do
section T for the first 15 days of this particular Medicare stay.
Good
morning, we have a resident adm 12/31/03,
on medicare and cut from therapy 1/30/04
then put back on ot 2/2/04.
I re-started the assessments with the 5 day but what do I put for section
T? I don’t think it should be done as the manual states the first 14
days of stay. I just want to make sure that I am
correct.
