> Hi, I am not sure how to proceed with doing this correction.. so I need some advice from you. > I just noted that the dietician entered the weight of the 14 day mds at 298 when it should have been 198. In her notes, she does have 198 written. the care plan etc are accurate regarless of the wrong data entry. I have not yet submitted this, but it is over the 7 day period---so I am confused on what exactly I need to do?? This is what I am thinking... > 1. I need to submit the 14 day locked assmt with the wrong weight > 2. I need to do a correction--- but is this a major error--since the chart indicates 198 lbs??? > 3. if this is a major error, I correct the 14 day assmt , by doing a modification, then I must do another MDS as a significant correction of a prior assmt. do I use a new ard??? *--do I need to do raps again?? > > Please set me staight on this > Thanks > karen > > > > NOTICE: This communication is intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed and may contain information that is privileged, confidential and exempt from disclosure under applicable law.
