MDS 2.0 - Strike Out an MDS Assessment

You can strike out an In Progress RAI-MDS 2.0 Assessment created in error. After the assessment is struck out, its status is SO and you cannot reopen or edit the assessment. Struck out MDS assessments are not included in MDS batches created for submission to CIHI, or your health authority.

  1. Click Strikeout next to the appropriate MDS assessment with a status of In Progress.

  2. In the window that appears, select the Reason for Strikeout.

  • After struck out, the MDS assessment appears on the MDS tab listing when Show Incomplete is selected. The assessment that was struck out is now marked with a status of SO and appears with a line through it to indicate that it is no longer an active part of the resident chart.

  • You must have the appropriate Security permissions to strike out an MDS assessment.

  • The strikeout list of options is dependent on configuration.
