Content: This webinar will review each subsection of Section GG of the MDS v1.18.11.

This webinar will also review common questions such as who completes Section GG, how to gather the information necessary to assign residents to the appropriate case mix category given the transition from Section G to Section GG, and how to develop a GG Score for Nursing Component Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM) levels. Attendees will receive a GG 3-day documentation tool, GG scoring tool, and GG coding definitions handout.
