Electronic Visit Verification (EVV)

Section 12006 of the 21st Century Cures Act mandates states to implement Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) systems for all Personal Care Services (PCS) and home health services that require an in-home visit by a provider.

EVV Requirements

The EVV system must be compatible with the state’s aggregator and capture the following six data elements:

  1. Type of service performed;
  2. Individual receiving the service;
  3. Date of service;
  4. Location of service delivery;
  5. Individual providing the service;
  6. Time the service begins and ends

To access more information and resources regarding Electronic Visit Verification (EVV), visit the EVV Library

EVV Resources

EVV is a federal mandate. Visit the CMS website for more information regarding regulations and EVV guidance.
Visit the Gainwell Technologies website for more information regarding EVV system compatibility testing and technical specifications for alternate EVV vendors.
