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?
