1 MDS 3.0 Updates 2018 Cassie Crafton R.N., CDP, RAC-CT

2 Objectives Understand new MDS 3.0 items in Sections GG, I, J, M, N and O that will be effective October 1 st, 2018 Know which MDS 3.0 items that will be removed and language changes

3 Clarifications with Resident Interviews Timing of Interviews Section C (BIMS)- to be conducted preferably on the ARD or the day before Section D (PHQ-9)- to be conducted preferably on the ARD or the day before Section F (Activities/Preferences)- during the 7 day look back period Section J (Pain)- to be conducted anytime during the 5 day lookback period preferably on the ARD or the day before

4 Clarifications with Resident Interviews Staff interview should not be completed in place of resident interview IF the resident interview could have been completed B0700 should NOT be coded as Rarely/Never Understood if any of the resident interviews were completed

5 PPS Changes Section GG changes Admission and Discharge Assessments Language Changes

6 Coding Tips Admission Performance and Discharge Goals are coded on every Admission Assessment (Start of Part A PPS Stay) regardless of length of stay and planned or unplanned discharge If the resident has an incomplete stay: Complete admission performance and goals Discharge self-care and mobility performance items are not required

7 Section GG- Intent Functional status is assessed based on the need for assistance when performing self - care and mobility activities Residents in SNFs have self - care and mobility limitations and are at risk for further functional decline and complications because of limited mobility

8 New Items Section GG GG 0100 Prior Functioning: Everyday Activities Intent: To identify resident s functional status prior to current illness

9 Section GG Prior Functioning Self Care: Code the resident s need for assistance with bathing, dressing, using the toilet, or eating prior to the current illness, exacerbation, or injury Indoor Mobility (Ambulation): Code the resident s need for assistance with walking from room to room (with or without a device such as cane, crutch, or walker) prior to the current illness, exacerbation, or injury Stairs: Code the resident s need for assistance with internal or external stairs (with or without a device such as cane, crutch, or walker) prior to the current illness, exacerbation, or injury Functional Cognition: Code the resident s need for assistance with planning regular tasks, such as shopping or remembering to take medication prior to the current illness, exacerbation, or injury

10 Section GG: Prior Functioning Coding Instructions: Code 3, Independent- no assistance, with/without assistive devices Code 2, Needed Some Help- needed partial assistance Code 1, Dependent- helper completed activity; includes needing 2 person assist Code 8, Unknown Code 9, Not Applicable- were not applicable to the resident s prior to current illness

11 Section GG New Item Added: G110- Prior Device Used Check all that apply

12 Section GG New items GG0130 Self-Care 4 new items

13 Section GG: New items GG0170 Mobility 7 new items

14 Section GG: GG0170 Mobility

15 Section GG: GG 0170 Mobility

16 Section GG Coding of GG0130 and GG Not attempted codes items 10- Not attempted due to environmental limitations ( NEW)

17 Section GG: Coding Instructions Admission Performance- code based on the first 3 days of Medicare Part A stay Discharge Performance- code based on last 3 days of Medicare Part A stay Coding is based on usual performance will require clinical judgement If activity occurs multiple times (e.g., eating, toileting, dressing, bed mobility activities, bed/chair transfers, do not code most dependent, do not code most independent Some items may only be assessed once, code that status

18 Steps for Assessment Section GG Activities may be completed with or without assistive device(s). Use of assistive device(s) to complete an activity should not affect coding of the activity. If the resident s self-care and mobility performance varies during the assessment period, record the resident s usual ability to perform each activity. -Do not record the resident s most independent performance -Do not record the resident s most dependent performance Refer to facility, Federal, and State policies and procedures to determine which SNF staff members may complete an assessment. Resident assessments are to be done in compliance with facility, Federal, and State requirements.

19 Discharge Goals

20 Discharge Coding Tips Use the six-point scale or activity was not attempted codes to code the resident s Discharge Goal(s). Use of codes 07, 09, 10, or 88 is permissible to code discharge goal(s). For the SNF QRP, a minimum of one self-care or mobility goal must be coded. However, facilities may choose to complete more than one self-care or mobility discharge goal. Use of a dash ( ) is permissible for any remaining self - care or mobility goals that were not coded. Using the dash in this allowed instance after the coding of at least one goal does not affect Annual Payment Update (APU) determination.

21 Discharge Coding Tips Licensed qualified clinicians can establish a resident s Discharge Goal(s) at the time of admission based on: Resident s prior medical condition(s) Prior and current self care and mobility status Discussions with resident and family concerning discharge goals Professional s standard of practice Expected treatments Resident motivation to improve Anticipated length of stay Resident s planned discharge setting/home Goals should established as part of the resident s care plan

22 Section GG: Summary 5-Day Assessment Column 1 All items in column 1 must be completed Base coding on first 3 days of Med A stay No dashes Choose any number from the 1-6 scale OR 1 of the 4 not attempted codes 5-day Assessment Column 2 Must have at least one discharge goal completed (may be in GG0130 or GG0170) May use 1 of the 4 not attempted as goals Dash goals not completed Goals may indicate an improvement, maintain, or possible decline

23 Section GG: Summary SNF PPS Discharge Assessment All items in Column 3 must be completed Base coding on last 3 days of Med A stay No dashes Chose any number from the 1-6 scale or 1 of the 4 not attempted codes Use of Dashes Section GG is the number 1 reason for 2% penalty Confusion on coding rules Use of dashes Only items used for QRP QM calculation are subject to the 2% penalty if dashed

24 Section I: New item I0020 Resident s primary medical condition Provides check boxes for 14 different items

25 Section I: New item I0020 Select the condition that represents the primary condition that resulted in resident s admission to the nursing facility If number 14 selected, enter an appropriate ICD-10- CM code in I0020 If any condition 1-13 selected, then item I0020 is left blank Includes the primary medical condition in Section I, Active Diagnoses

Code 0, No, does not meet major surgery criteria Gall bladder surgery performed 6 months prior to admission. Code 0, No, does not meet criteria due to greater than 100 days ago

33 Section K Change in Coding Instructions related to K0510 and K0710 CMS no longer requires completion of Column 1 for K0510C or K0510D. Some states may still require. Arkansas will not

34 Section K Change in coding instructions to K0710 CMS no longer requires completion of Column 1 K0710 A and B. Some states may still require. (Arkansas does not)

35 Section M: Intent A complete assessment of skin is essential to an effective pressure ulcer prevention and skin treatment program. Be certain to include in the assessment process a holistic approach. It is imperative to determine the etiology of all wounds and lesions, as this will determine and direct the proper treatment and management of the wound.

36 Section M: Intent CMS adheres to the following guidelines: Stage 1 pressure injuries and deep tissue injuries (DTIs) are termed pressure injuries because they are closed wounds Stage 2, 3, or 4 pressure ulcers, or unstageable ulcers due to slough or eschar, are termed pressure ulcers because they are usually open wounds Unstageable ulcers/injuries due to non - removable dressing/device are termed pressure ulcers/injuries because they may be open or closed wounds

37 Section M: Definitions New: The term device was added to items: M0300E M0300E2

38 Section M: Definitions New: Removed the term suspected deep tissue injury in evolution and replaced with deep tissue injury to items M0300G and M0300G1

39 Section M: Coding Steps for completing M0300A G 1. Determine Deepest Anatomical Stage 2. Identify Unstageable Pressure Ulcers/Injuries 3. Determine Present on Admission On the Admission Assessment, on admission means as close to the actual time of admission as possible On each assessment determine the number of pressure ulcers/injuries present and determine the number of these that were present on admission Manual instruction 9 under Step 3: If a pressure ulcer was numerically staged, then became unstageable, and is subsequently debrided sufficiently to be numerically staged, compare its numerical stage before and after it was unstageable. If the numerical stage has increased, code this pressure ulcer as not present on admission.

40 Section M: Summary Wording revisions due to Ulcer vs Injury Injury is used for closed wounds (Stage 1, Deep Tissue Injury) Ulcer is used for open wounds (Stage 2-4, Unstageable due to slough/eschar Significant Change in Definition related to Present on Admission If the pressure ulcer/injury was present on admission/entry or reentry and becomes unstageable due to slough or eschar, during the resident s stay, the pressure ulcer/injury is coded at M0300F and should not be coded as present on admission

41 Section M: Summary Deleted Items: M0610 (Wound Measurements) M0700 (Most Severe Tissue Type Present) M0800 (New or Worsened Pressure Ulcer) M0900 (Healed Pressure Ulcers)

42 Section N Three New items added New QRP QM (drug regimen review) Drug Regimen Review Upon admission medications reviewed Significant clinical issues reported to provider (physician or NP) and follow up orders/recommendations implemented by midnight of the following day Upon discharge any clinically significant issues were reported to provider and orders/recommendations implemented by midnight the next day

43 Section N: N2001 and N2003 To be completed on 5 day PPS assessment Two questions related to resident admission (drug regimen review)

44 Section N: N2001 and N2003 Coding N No, no issue found (Go to Section O) 1- Yes, Issue found (continue to N2003) 9- NA, Resident not taking medications (skip to O) Coding N2003 (Only completed if answered YES to N2001) 0- No 1- yes

45 Section N- N2005 Covers entire stay- from Admission throughout stay If N2003 us coded as No, then N2005 must also be No

46 Drug Regimen Review If the physician prescribes an action that will take longer than midnight of the next calendar day to complete, then code 1, YES, should still be entered, if by midnight of the next calendar day, the clinician has taken the appropriate steps to comply with the recommended action. Example of a physician-recommended action that would take longer than midnight of the next calendar day to complete. The physician writes an order instructing the clinician to monitor the medication issue over the next three days and call if the problem persists.

47 Drug Regimen Review Includes all medications Prescribed and over the counter medications Administered by an route (including oral, topical, inhalant, injection, sublingual, parenteral, and by infusion Includes total parenteral nutrition (TPN) and oxygen A clinical significant medication issue is a potential or actual issue that, in the clinician s professional judgement, warrants: Physician (or physician-designee) communication and Completion of prescribed/recommended action by midnight of the next calendar day

48 Drug Regimen Review Clinically Significant Issues Medication prescribed despite medication allergies Adverse reactions to medications Duplicate therapy Wrong patient, drug, dose, route, and time errors Omissions Drug interactions Ineffective drug therapy Nonadherence to drug therapy

49 Drug Regimen Review Drug Regimen Review performed: Upon admission or as close to Admission as possible (per CMS) Should be completed within first 24 hours Drug Regimen Review is ongoing throughout stay Each new drug order Each revision or change in drug order Change in clinical status

50 Drug Regimen Review Medication Reconciliation Compare admission orders with medications received in hospital, prior to hospitalizations Review Diagnosis and Allergies Review Labs and ongoing lab monitoring (coumadin, etc.)

51 Drug Regimen Review Operational Changes Develop and review current processes Involve consultant pharmacist Need to educate nursing staff on drug regimen review and requirements Educate providers on new regulations and requirements Documentation: Nurse document DRR upon admission (review, physician notification, and recommendation)

52 Section O Chemotherapy Clarification Hormonal and other agents administered to prevent the recurrence or slow the growth of cancer should NOT be coded in this item, as they are not considered chemotherapy for the purpose of coding the MDS Examples: Tamoxifen, Evista, Fareston, Arimidex, Aromasin, Femara, Lupron, Eligard, Lupron Depot, Viadur

53 Section O Clarifications for O0100F and O0200G O0100F now defined as an invasive mechanical ventilator (ventilator or respirator) O0100G now named a non-invasive mechanical ventilator (BiPAP/CPAP) Pneumococcal Removed old CDC diagram Follow guidance at : pneumo-vaccine-timing.pdf
