An MAO submitted a CRR Add that was linked to an original EDR. The linked CRR Add was accepted. The MAO then submitted a replacement of the EDR, and it was accepted. Because the linked CRR Add was submitted for the original EDR, will those CRR Add diagnoses now be linked to the replacement EDR?


Answer:

No, the diagnoses on the Chart Review Record (CRR) Add will not be linked to the replacement Encounter Data Record (EDR). However, the diagnoses on the CRR Add will still be considered for risk adjustment if they pass the CMS filtering logic. The information on a Linked CRR Add is still retained and goes through CMS’ filtering process, even if the record that the CRR Add is linked to is voided or replaced.
