Christine faxed me a copy of the letter
they use and it is perfect for setting the stage for predictable pauses in
skilling/therapy r/t weight bearing status, waiting for stumps to
heal/prosthetics to arrive etc. I know we are going to use it. I
could fax you what she sent me if you want. Just send me your fax
number. This is just another example of how valuable this site can be-is
it not?

We have never done this, what
we do is try and get them to upgrade weight bearing at ortho appt. Occasionally
we have had to use Part B if longer than 30 days.

PT has discharged a resident
r/t no increase in weight bearing status (post fx with ORIF) and she has
plateaued. We had to cut her from MED A r/t no other skilled
service. IF she does not get increased weight bearing before the 30 day
window for restarting PT/MEDA expires can we apply the delayed PT exception to
this situation if the d/c order for PT states to resume therapy at a more
appropriate time?
