How would you code this scenario?
Although Mrs. T is generally continent of urine, every once in a while (about every two weeks) she doesn't make it to the bathroom to urinate in time after receiving her daily diuretic.
How would you score Mrs T's urinary incontinence?
0 Continent
1 Usually continent
2 Occasionally incontinent
3 Frequently incontinent
4 Incontinent
Answer: 1 (usually continent, which the MDS defines as bladder incontinent episodes once a week or less).
