What is the effect of the cognition covariate for the long-stay
MDS 3.0 QM “Percent of Residents Whose Ability to Move
Independently Worsened”?
It decreases the QM score due to a worsening in ability to
move.
It stratifies the results based on ability to locomote
independently.
It results in exclusion of the resident from the calculation,
since he or she is unable to make-self understood.
The facility’s QM-adjusted score is decreased to compensate
for residents who have severe cognitive impairment.
