This month’s challenge is related to the new OASIS-E1 item O0350 – Patient’s COVID-19 Vaccine is up to date. One lucky follower with the correct answer will be randomly selected to receive a copy of our 2024 INSTANT OASIS Answers Book! Scenario: The assisted living facility where Mr. Geoff resides requires all residents to either be up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations, or have a signed statement indicating a medical or religious exception. Mr. Geoff , 78 years old, routinely received COVID-19 vaccinations in the past. His last two vaccinations were Moderna (Dec 2022) and updated 2023/2024 Moderna (January 2024). Since a transplant in March 2024, Mr. Geoff has a signed statement from his physician stating he should not be vaccinated until further notice. How should O0350- Patient’s COVID-19 Vaccine is up to date be coded? A: 0 – No, patient is not up to date - because the patient has a documented medical exemption B: 0 – No, patient is not up to date – because the patient has not had 2 doses of any updated 2023/2024 COVID-19 vaccine C: 1 – Yes, patient is up to date – because the patient has a documented medical exemption D: 1 – Yes, patient is up to date – because the patient received a dose of an updated 2023/2024 COVID-19 vaccine in Jan 2024.
