If there are changes on the horizon it would be good to let all people who were unable to attend the conference  know about them.

Subject: Request for help - New Manual Changes effective April 22nd?

Once again, I find myself in a position to need assistance from this wonderful provider organizatio
 
I requested a copy of Mary Pratt's presentation to AANAC several weeks ago, but she did not respond to me.
 
If anyone has anything in writing or on tape, from CMS,  confirming the date of April 22 for the release of the manual changes, please give it to me so I can give the providers in Virginia some official response.
 
All RAI Managers were given a set of "proposed final draft" changes last month.  We were told they were for internal use only, and not to distribute them.  We were also told that CMS would use it's policy that says manual changes would be posted the last Monday of the month, whenever changes occurred. 
 
If Mary Pratt has given a date of April 22nd, and if she has released the changes, then I want to get them to my providers as soon as possible.  I don't want Virginians who could not attend the AANAC Conference to be left in the dark over a CMS announcement of this magnitude.
 
If anyone can help me, please contact me one of these ways:
 
work:  804-367-2132
fax:  804-367-2149
 
There is an all-state call today between CMS and the RAI Managers, so, hopefully she will make any necessary announcements then.  I will report to this list anything she says that we can release.
 
Thanks again,
 
Judy Wilhide
RAI Manager
Virginia
