RAI Process from Start to Finish

February 15-16, 2012
July 11-12, 2012
October 9-10, 2012

Purpose
This workshop will look at the RAI process from beginning to end.  The MDS is used for both a clinical assessment and a financial assessment and this workshop will discuss the rules on scheduling these assessments and meeting the requirements individually and combined.  Item-by-item coding will be reviewed.  From coding the MDS, we will then look at the CAA to care plan process.  An overview of the Medicare requirements that need to be followed for appropriate reimbursement will be discussed.  Finally, we will review how to stay up-to-date in this ever-changing world of MDS 3.0.
