You do not have to do an OMRA if there was never a rehab RUGs category. See
section 2 page 29 in the RAI manual. It states this in the chart for PPS
Assessments.

In sec P for ostomy cares (if cares are being done)
If the
60 day already comes out to be a nursing RUG you would not have to do
an
OMRA.
see page 2-29 of the manual. Not needed if "establishes a new
non-therapy
RUG classification"

I have a two part question.
1) Is there any where, besides the
ostomy in section H ,that I would code
for an
ileoostomy?
2) 60 day MDS done 3/1 res is in nursing category even
though he did receive
ST during that assessment. ST Was dcd on
03/05/2004. Do I need to do an
OMRA? It wouldn't change the RUG
category.
Thanks in advance
