(1) The provider of the ICF/IID in which the resident resides or from which the resident is on hospital or therapeutic leave has submitted to the department under division (D) of this section revised assessment data for the resident or an attestation of no changes in the resident's assessment data and the department has reason to believe that the revised assessment data or attestation is inaccurate;

(2) The department has reason to believe that the resident's most recent assessment no longer accurately reflects the resident's condition;

(3) The department determines that the resident's most recent assessment should be updated because of the passage of time since that assessment was performed.

(1) Revised assessment data for the resident if there are changes in the resident's assessment data;

(2) An attestation that there are no changes in the resident's assessment data.
