Title: Rehab RUG

Where can I find information on Case Mix Indexing.  There is very little in the RAI Manual.  -----Original Message----- From: Gail Neustadt [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 2:28 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: Rehab RUG Make sure that your grouper program groups according to Medicare's highest level of reimbursement and not hierarchically.   Gail Neustadt, NHA ----- Original Message ----- From: rlabarge (Becky LaBarge) To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 04, 2004 12:51 PM Subject: Rehab RUG Need help understanding why a resident with IV meds, IV fluids, blood transfusions, surgical wounds, internal bleeding coded on MDS still comes out at a Rehab RUG - RMB (PT 5 days 180 minutes/Section T - 3 days 365 minutes) instead of an SE3. Can anyone help?  Thanks.  Becky Confidentiality Notice:  This e-mail message including attachments, if any, is intended only for the person or entity to which it is addressed and may contain confidential and/or privileged material.  Any unauthorized review, use, disclosure or distribution is prohibited.  If you are not the intended recipient, please contact the sender by reply e-mail and destroy all copies of the original message.  If you are the intended recipient but do not wish to receive communications through this medium, please notify this office immediately.
