Try going to your intermediary. Easier to find on their site. If you cannot find it there let me know and I will surf it and pinpoint it.

Does anyone have a list of the case mix diagnosis for home care?I know the three main are ortho,diabetes and neuro but I would like to see the classifications in each. With the use of the new V codes our agency is struggling to fill out the OASIS correctly. I have searched the government sites on the web but can't come up with an answer. Can anyone help? :)

a case mix is used when on medicare and has at least 4 services, ie, rn, hha, pt, ot, speech etc

thanks

Saves the day! The Fazzi information I passed out to our nurses a few weeks ago. Great blow by blow, tag by tag definition.
