Question: How are Medicare Part B therapy minutes reported on the MDS?
Answer from Scott Heichel, RN, RAC-MT, RAC-CTA, DNS-CT, QCP, ICC, IPCO:
Therapy minutes under Part B are not captured on the MDS, since O0425 is Part A specific. However, you would check the box in O0390 if the 15-minute criterion was met for any of the listed therapies.
