This workshop will look at the RAI process from beginning to end at each item of the MDS.  The MDS is used for both a clinical and financial assessment and will discuss the rules on scheduling these assessments and meeting the clinical and financial requirements.  This includes a basic understanding of the PDPM and how it correlates within the RAI process.  This workshop reviews how to gain access to and read the MDS reports from CASPER to self-audit your RAI process and look at your QMs.  This workshop is designed for the MDS Coordinator and Care Plan Coordinator, or for the DON or ADM who needs a better understanding of the complexity of the RAI Process.

Objectives:

• Describe the RAI process
• Describe the required forms and schedule completion of the RAI process.
• Review MDS items that are reflected in PPS reimbursement.
• Complete the RAI, including MDS, CAA and care plans
• Identify mechanisms for effective communications, as well as remaining current with the RAI process.
