| CMS issues January 2008 RAI manual update |
| As it has done several times in the past, CMS slipped a last-minute goody into the nursing home industry's 2007 Christmas stocking. On December 26, 2007, the agency quietly posted a new update to the RAI User's Manual on its MDS 2.0 Web page at www.cms.hhs.gov/nursinghomequalityinits/20_nhqimds20.asp.
