5 OBRA Significant Change in Status Significant Change in Status 0 4 Significant change differs from a significant error because it reflects an actual significant change in the resident s health status and NOT incorrect coding of the MDS. Item Set (NC) Includes CAAs A significant change may require referral for a Preadmission Screening and Resident Review (PASRR) evaluation if a mental illness, intellectual disability (ID), or related condition is present or is suspected to be present Significant Change in Status Significant Change is Status (A0310A = 4) assessment Must be completed when IDT has determined that a resident meets the significant change guidelines Improvement or decline Can be completed anytime after the completion of an assessment Significant Change in Status The nursing home may take up to 14 days to determine whether the criteria are met After determination has been made that a resident meets the guidelines Document the initial identification in the clinical record Significant change must be completed (MDS/CAAs) within 14 days of determination Significant Change in Status A significant change is a decline or improvement in a resident s status that: 1. Will not normally resolve itself without intervention by staff or by implementing standard disease related clinical interventions, is not self limiting (for declines only); 2. Impacts more than one area of the resident s health status; and 3. Requires interdisciplinary review and/or revision of the care plan. Significant Change in Status A SCSA is appropriate when Determination that a significant change in a resident s condition from his/her baseline has occurred by comparison of resident s current status to the most recent OBRA assessment Condition is not expected to return to baseline within two weeks Resident enrolls in a hospice program Resident receiving hospice services and decides to discontinues services (revokes hospice) Resident changes hospice providers

6 SCSA Impact on Cycle Completion of a Significant Change in Status will reset the OBRA Cycle Next OBRA assessment due will be a within 92 days of SCSA ARD Next comprehensive OBRA assessment due will be an within 366 days of SCSA ARD OBRA Cycle 366 Days 92 days SCSA 31 OBRA Cycle 366 Days OBRA Significant Correction to Prior SCSA 92 days 0 5 Item Set (NC) Includes CAAs 35 OBRA Cycle 366 Days SCSA 92 days Significant Correction to Prior Significant Correction to Prior (SCPA) (A0310A= 05) Completed when IDT determines that a resident s prior comprehensive assessment contains a significant error Can be performed any time after the completion of an 36 6

7 Significant Correction to Prior Significant Correction to Prior ARD must be within 14 days after the determination that a significant error in prior comprehensive assessment occurred Determination date + 14 calendar days Completion date (MDS/CAAs) must be no later than 14 days after the ARD AND 14 days after the determination that a significant error occurred Care plan must be completed with 7 days of CAA completion 37 ARD must be set within 14 days after determination MDS must be completed no later than 14 days after the ARD And 14 days from the determination date 40 OBRA Significant Correction to Prior SCPA Impact on Cycle Significant correction to prior comprehensive 0 6 SCPA Item Set (NQ) Subset of the comprehensive items Does not include CAAs days: ARD of SCPA to ARD of next quarterly 366 days: ARD of SCPA to ARD of next annual 41 Significant Correction to Prior Must be completed when the IDT determines that a resident s prior assessment contains a significant error Can be performed at any time after the completion of a assessment SCPQ Impact on Cycle Significant correction to prior SCPQ 92 days: ARD of SCPQ to ARD of next quarterly 366 days: ARD of annual to ARD of next annual

No Restart with admission type entry record, followed by a new Evaluate for a SCSA on return If No, continue current OBRA Cycle OBRA Discharge Return Anticipated 1 1 Discharge Return Anticipated Impact on Cycle Resident discharges return anticipated and returns within 30 days DC RA SCSA? Yes OBRA Discharge Item Set (ND) Subset of items from comprehensive Does not include CAAs SCSA Evaluate for a SCSA on return If Yes, the SCSA will reset the cycle

10 OBRA Discharge s Tips for OBRA Discharge s Must be completed when: The resident is discharged from the facility The resident is admitted to an acute care hospital The resident has a hospital observation stay greater than 24 hours Completion and Transmission Transmission requirements are based off of completion dates assessments Transmission date must be no later than Care plan completion date + 14 calendar days Non s Transmission date must be no later than MDS completion date + 14 calendar days Tracking Records Transmission date must be no later than event date + 14 calendar days Algorithm RAI Page Completion and Transmission Chapter 5 Transmitting MDS Data All Medicare and/or Medicaid certified nursing homes and swing beds, must transmit MDS data records to CMS Quality Improvement and Evaluation System (QIES) Submission and Processing (ASAP) system s that are completed for purposes other than OBRA and SNF PPS reasons are not to be submitted Private insurance (such as Medicare Advantage Plans) 59 OBRA cycle 366 Days Completion and Transmission Chapter 5 Item A0410 indicates the certification or licensure of the unit on which the resident resides Item indicated submission authority for a record 92 days 60 10

11 Completion and Transmission Chapter 5 When the transmission file is received by the QIES ASAP system, the system performs a series of validation edits to determine if the data submitted meets the required standards A Final Validation Report provides the results of this evaluation by error and warning messages OBRA Impact Five Star Publically reported to take information directly to the consumers Assists consumers in selecting a facility Nursing Home Compare website arch.html Completion and Transmission Final Validation Report Understanding errors and warning messages Fatal Record Errors Results in rejection of assessment has NOT been accepted into the QIES ASAP system must be corrected and resubmitted Non Fatal Errors (warnings) MDS has been accepted into the QIES ASAP system May include warnings of missing data, item consistency errors, timing errors Each warning must be reviewed for corrective actions if needed OBRA Impact Survey outcomes Surveyors also use similar list of QMs as part of the survey process Surveyors can site facilities for MDS related issues For example: F days after F274 after significant change F275 at least every 12 months F278 Accuracy/Coordination/Certified F287 Encoding/Transmitting Resident F279 Develop Care Plans OBRA Impact Quality Measures Intended to reflect quality of care in a facility CMS pulls data specific to particular conditions and problems from the national data base Examples Rate of UTIs in a facility comes from I2300 Decline in ADLs is computed from comparing G0110 data on successive assessments Quality Measures info and User s Manual: Initiatives Patient instruments/nursinghomequalityinits/nhqiqualitymeasures.html OBRA Impact Case mix reimbursement Some states reimburse Medicaid based on a casemix system Contact your State RAI Coordinator for state specific reimbursement information Appendix B of the RAI Manual provides this information Initiatives Patient Instruments/NursingHomeQualityInits/MDS30RAIManu al.html
