Considerations
6W hat is EVV?
• Electronic visit verification (EVV) is a technology solution
which electronically verifies that home and community-
based services are actually delivered to people needing
those services by documenting the precise time service
begins and ends.
• Includes multiple point-of-care visit verification
technologies, such as telephonic, mobile, web portal
(Santrax) verification inputs.
7W hy is EVV required?
• Section 12006 of the 21st Century Cures Act requires all state
Medicaid agencies implement an EVV solution to manage
their Personal Care services by January 1, 2019, and for all
Home Health services by January 1, 2023.
• States that do not implement EVV will incur a reduction of
Federal funding.
• H.R. 6042 delays FMAP reductions from 2019 to 2020.

9State EVV M odel
Hybrid Model
• Colorado selected a vendor that will provide
EVV solutions while allowing all providers to
choose alternative/existing EVV systems, if
they meet state specifications.
10Benefits of Hybrid M odel
• Advocates for Provider and Member choice
• Providers have a no cost solution through the state if they so choose
• Providers have centralized platform to use without running their own
procurements. Alleviating burden, if they choose
• Centralized platform facilitates linking EVV with MMIS claims data
