I have a res. that was discharged prior to completion. She is now
back in the facility and I have been wondering should she be coded as a 1 for a
5 day or as a 05 readmission. She has had one 5 day done prior to going
back to the hospital. I have always been under the understanding that when
a res. returns and you have not done the admission assessment yet you code them
as another 5 day because if you code them as a readmission/05 that continues the
time line that they were on when they were originally admitted. Please
clarify for me. Thanks
