                     NEW WITH VERSION 5.11B


Version 5.11B incorporates a single change from 5.11.  That change
is to allow for the new Medicare reason for assessment codes (7 and
8) in the AA8b item.  These codes were implemented with the 1/30/98
revision to the MDS 2.0.  These 2 AA8b codes accommodate Medicare
PPS 14-Day Assessments (AA8b = 7) and Medicare PPS Other Required
Assessments (AA8b = 8).
