You would have to do a Discharge Return Anticipated since they were out of
the facilty at the hospital for more than 24 hours.  Then do a
return/readmission assessment to start the PPS cycle over again.

Remember, once out to the hospital for more than 24 hours, regardless if
they are admitted you start the process over.

Subject: PPS QUESTION


Hello, 
A Part A resident is transferred from our facility, spends 36 hours at the
acute hospital, and is NOT admitted. Returns to us. What do I do about the
PPS calendar?
Thanks
