Yes, if that is what the pt/ot evaluations indicate and what the plan was. Brenda W.

-----Original Message----- From: Baker, Margaret (SNMH) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 2004 2:41 PM To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: SECTION T Resident admitted post surgery 3/29. All notes from therapy and team meeting indicate that he would be receiving a high level of therapy from OT and PT for at least 2 weeks. Unfortunately he developed a fatal condition was transferred back to the Acute Care 3/30 and died in ICCU 3/31. He had 18 min of OT and 60 min of PT prior to his precipitous DC. I ordinarily would have coded him in section T as projected for High minutes in therapy. But he left so soon and with so few minutes??? Is it still ok to project him as high??? /---------------------------------------------------------- The Case Mix Discussion Group is a free service of the American Association of Nurse Assessment Coordinators "Committed to the Assessment Professional" Be sure to visit the AANAC website.
