If there is any chance that Medicare might become the primary payor, I do PPS assessments and transmit as if they were Medicare. That way they are there if needed. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, March 25, 2004 3:30 PM Subject: Missed PPS assessments
