Electronic Visit Verification Requirements

In 2016, the federal government passed the Cures Act, requiring the verification of most Medicaid-funded personal care services. In order to meet these requirements, the Oregon Office of Developmental Disability Services (ODDS) implemented a statewide launch of EVV, which took effect in July of 2019. As of April of 2020, ODDS started taking action against those who are not yet using a system for electronically verifying personal care services. 

Meeting Compliance Requirements

Electronic visit verification was established as a way to confirm where and when a caregiver has provided services for a consumer. This mandate was established as a way to improve care provider accountability, increase transparency, and ensure consumers receive the quality of care they need and deserve. Having a simple, yet secure way of tracking when and where visits take place can also help to expedite the claims process and reduce the incidence of Medicaid fraud. 

If you have additional questions about the federal EVV requirements or want to access specific details within the law, you can visit the Medicaid EVV website.

Getting the Most Out of Your EVV Software

To simplify the implementation of electronic visit verification, an EVV system was made available through the current Oregon Express Payment and Reporting (eXPRS) website. However, it lacks certain capabilities and user-friendly features that would be beneficial to care providers.

According to the Oregon Department of Human Services, all Developmental Disabilities providers have the option of using their own EVV system that is either custom-built or purchased from a 3rd party vendor so long as it can electronically capture the following information at the time of service:

  • Date of service
  • Individual receiving the service
  • Name of individual providing the service
  • Location of service
  • Type of service performed
  • Time the service begins and ends

For care providers, government agencies, and all parties involved, EVV software can make documentation, tracking, and reporting easier provided that it is easy to use. The right EVV system can reduce the amount of time spent filling out paperwork, help to reduce the incidence of errors, and ensure care needs are being met.
