MAYBE NATHAN CAN HELP US
SCENARIO: PT SKILLED FOR REHAB (ST/PT) AND GT. 60 DAY ARD: 02/17 60 DAY REFERENCE PERIOD : 02/04 -02/18 LAST MEDICARE COVERED DAY: 02/17
PT PROGRESS NOTES: D/C SKILLED SERVICES AS OF 01/12. NO PHYSICIAN ORDER WAS OBTAINED/WRITTEN.
ST PROGRESS NOTES: "PT HAS BEEN D/C THIS PAST WEEK SECONDARY TO....".NO PHYSICIAN ORDER WAS OBTAINED OR WRITTEN.
REHAB DID NOT MENTION ON PPS MEETINGS THAT RESIDENT WILL BE OR HAS BEEN D/C'ED.
QUESTION: CAN RESIDENT STILL BE CONSIDERED SKILLED UNDER REHAB TIL LAST MCR COVERED DAY (2/17) BECAUSE THERE IS WRITTEN D/C ORDER? OMRA WAS NEVER SCHEDULED SINCE THERE IS NO REHAB D/C ORDER.
