Is any one using the SLUMS Dementia / Alzheimer's Test Exam in place of the Mini Mental Status Examination (MMSE) form that is in EMR. We have to replace our MMSE and a few of our providers have suggested using the SLUMS Exam. I was just curious if anyone has replaced the MMSE and what they have replaced it with or if anyone is using the SLUMS Exam and what they think of it. Thank you for your in put and time.
Here is a link for the SLUMS exam if anyone is curious: http://www.elderguru.com/downl.....test-exam/
Thank you again,

Our clinic does use the SLUMS exam however we have written it into a text component instead of a VFE form so you have to manually enter the slumsscore obsterm which isn't happening.
I am actually looking for a VFE form that is already built due to metric changes.
