The range C0200-C0400 is used to identify what?

• A. Nonsensical Response
• B. Written Instructions
• C. C0200-C0400
• D. Private Setting

Answer: (C)

In OASIS data collection, item numbers are organized into ranges that group related questions. The range C0200-C0400 designates the whole block of items that covers information about instructions given to the patient and caregiver, including whether written instructions were provided and understood. So the range itself is used to identify that whole set of instruction-related items, which is why selecting the range is the best answer.

Nonsensical Response and Private Setting don’t pertain to this group of data elements. Written Instructions describes the content area of the items, but the question is about what the range labels, not the content itself.
