For the MDS 3.0 short-stay QM “Percentage of Residents Who Made Improvements in Function

For the MDS 3.0 short-stay QM “Percentage of Residents Who Made Improvements in Function,” how do covariates affect the QM score for a facility that has a typical proportion of residents with the covariate conditions?

They exclude the resident from the calculation; as a result, they have no effect on the QM score.

 

They increase the QM score to account for the higher level of care required for those types of conditions.

 

They have no effect on the final score.

 

They level the playing field for a facility that has more residents with the covariate conditions than other facilities have.
