The Medicare Benefits Manual, Chapter 7 states: To meet the requirement for "intermittent" skilled nursing care, a beneficiary must have a medically predictable recurring need for skilled nursing services...at least one every 60 days." Therefore, a single nursing visit will usually trigger an alert if only one SN visit was scheduled. It will usually be denied, if selected for review.
