Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) is software that electronically verifies whether personal care providers and home health providers have delivered or rendered services as billed. EVV is a federal requirement for Medicaid-funded in-home personal care and home health services in all 50 states.
The Executive Office of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) administers the Massachusetts Medicaid program, MassHealth, and oversees the use of EVV in programs that provide certain home-and community-based services.
In Massachusetts, EVV affects programs within the following:
- MassHealth
- Executive Office of Aging & Independence
EVV will promote quality outcomes for members by
- making sure services are delivered appropriately;
- reducing the need for paper timesheets; and
- decreasing billing errors and unauthorized spending.
