Summary
The facility failed to timely transmit a Minimum Data Set (MDS) assessment for one resident. The resident, who had diagnoses including Parkinson's Disease, dementia, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and anxiety, was admitted following a qualifying hospital stay. The MDS Coordinator confirmed that the resident's most recent MDS assessment was started as a discharge with return anticipated but was not closed or transmitted as required. The discharge assessment, which had a target date of completion, remained open and overdue until it was finally transmitted several months later, well past the required timeframe.
