1.Residents who qualify as high risk are excluded from the denominator: a. Severe cognitive impairment on the target assessment as indicated by B4 = 3 AND B2a = 1; OR
1. b. Totally dependent in mobility ADLs on the target assessment: G1a(A) = 4 or 8 AND G1b(A) = 4 or 8 AND G1e(A) = 4 or 8..

1. The target assessment is an admission (AA8a = 01) assessment.
2. The QM did not trigger (resident is not included in the QM numerator) AND the value of H1a or H1b is missing on the target assessment.
3.Residents who are comatose (B1=1) or comatose status is unknown (B1=missing) on the target assessment.
4. The resident has an indwelling catheter (H3d = checked) or indwelling catheter status is unknown (H3d=missing) on the target assessment.
5. The resident has an ostomy (H3i = checked) or ostomy status is unknown (H3i=missing) on target assessment.
6. The resident is in a facility with Chronic Care Admission sample =0 (i.e., there are no admission assessments with AA8a=01 in the facility over the previous 12 months.

1. The resident does not qualify as high risk and the value of B2a or B4 is missing on the target assessment.
