The department must identify a medicaid resident assessment through the review of the minimum data set (MDS) medicaid number field. If the nursing facility completes the MDS medicaid number field with a valid medicaid number or the appropriate code for medicaid pending, then the department will count the case as a medicaid resident assessment.
