I agree with Rena's evaluation of this. Remember,
as far as CMS is concerned, this is a completely new assessment. It has no
connection to the assessment you submitted as a 60 day. As with all assessments,
the R2b date is the day you completed the assessment.
Also, don't think of AA8b as anything other than a
just another piece of data in the assessment. If that is the last piece of data
you change, that determines the R2b date.

It doesn't sound like the information would have
changed. She just changed the coding from a 60 day to a 30 day.
The assessment would not have changed. I think she needs to leave the
R2b date the same, because this is when she completed the assessment. It
is still the same assessment just different coding. When she inactivates it
she can put the date on the attestation form of the day she fixed it.

Unfortunately, the R2b date is not when you
finished assessing the resident - that is the ARD. The R2b date is when you
finished filling out the form. That is the date you made the AA8b change.
Keep the same ARD, but the R2b must reflect when you last made a change to
the data in the MDS.

I believe you must use a new R2b. If you were doing a Modification
you could keep the same R2b. But, as you know, you must do an
inactivation and a new assessment in this situation. Since this is a
brand new assessments, you must put the actual date that you completed
this new assessment.

Okay, I have inactivated the 60 day assessment that should
have been a 30 day....I have redone the 30day and am getting ready to
resubmit....what do I sign as R2b????? Help, this is driving
me crazy, I have never had to inactivate a record and I am
freaking........I want to keep the same date on the R2b and from reading
the Correction policy, I think this is correct. Any answers are
appreciated.
