If this was a data entry error and the assessment activities actually ended on day 10, then modification of the ARD would be appropriate. If it was not a data entry error - meaning that the assessment activities actually ended on day 11, then modification of the ARD would not be appropriate. In that case, setting of the ARD was late, and the default rate would have to be billed for the number of days the assessment was late. In either case, the assessment was a valid assessment, and therefore inactivation would not be appropriate.

I made a mistake and transmitted OMRA with the ARD on day 11 instead of day 10. Can I inactivate assessment and transmit it again with the right ARD or we have to take a default payment?
Thanks Lana Vinnik RN, RAC-C
