Subject: Contracture Question
On G4 we are to code limitations in ROM if it affects their selfcare; if a resident who is totally dependent for all cares due to Alzheimers has a contracture to a hand, do we code this? Am curious what you guys think because we were cited last year for not coding G4 accurately and want to make sure we don't repeat. Thanks.
