Examining Resource Consumption (Level 4—Analyzing)

In the Medicare Skilled Nursing Facility Services Payment System, the case-mix index value represents the level of resource consumption, similar to the relative weight of MS-DRGs in the Medicare Hospital Acute Inpatient Services Payment System. Examine table 6.5 in the textbook. Using the questions below as a guide, analyze the connection between PDPM nursing elements and resource consumption. 

Note:
