What is EVV?

Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) is a system used to ensure accountability and accuracy in home health care services. It tracks and verifies that care providers deliver the right services to clients at the right time and place. EVV is required for certain Medicaid-funded services, including those provided through Community First Services and Supports (CFSS).

Key Features of EVV:

• Time Tracking: Records the exact time a caregiver starts and ends a service.

  
  

• Location Verification: Confirms that services are provided in the correct location.

  
  

• Service Details: Tracks the type of care provided.

  
  

Why is EVV Important?

• Transparency: Ensures services are delivered as planned.

  
  

• Accuracy: Reduces errors in reporting and billing.

  
  

• Compliance: Meets federal and state requirements for Medicaid services.

How Does EVV Work?

Caregivers use a mobile app, telephone, or electronic device to log:

• When they arrive and leave.

  
  

• The type of service provided.

  
  

• The client’s location (if required).
