Resident Identification

Free residents from back pain

Your staff may be able to identify residents who could benefit from the Bio-Back based on their personal knowledge of your residents. However there are MDS indications that may also be able to identify these residents. Proper MDS documentation can also have a positive affect on the RUGs score potentially increasing per diem reimbursements.

Consider these areas of the RUGs Classification System:

1. Section G addresses patient balance while standing and sitting.
   The Bio-Back can assist by providing back and abdominal support while correcting posturethus reducing slumping.

2. Section J addresses a patient's unsteady gait.
   The Bio-Back can assist by improving posture and providing support to the abdomen and back.

3. Section J also asks about frequency and intensity of pain and allows the back to be identified as the pain site.
   The Bio-Back's patented features relieve back pain while allowing the resident near total mobility to do their daily activities.

4. Section P identifies nursing rehab programs being provided and indicate if splint or brace assistance is provided.
   If a brace or splint is provided to a resident as part of their plan of carea possible 18 RUG categories may be triggeredwhich may increase the facilities per diem revenue for some patients
