*if LOS in ICU or medicine <=3 days and IF comorbid DX is 351, then TISS 52-55 or Medicine TASK item not marked is correct. | |||
(most CRF patient will have dialysis 2-3 times per week, so checking every patient with LOS of <= days who have 351 in comorbid, but nothing on TISS or in TASK, if creating excessive chart checks. | |||
* if Julie would like to comment further. | |||
