Today the Centers for
Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) released an Informational Bulletin
describing refinements made to the existing certification process as they
apply to Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) systems used for all Medicaid
personal care services and home health services requiring an in-home visit
by a provider.
The 21st Century
Cures Act (“Cures Act”) authorized enhanced federal financial participation
for EVV systems, which are therefore subject to the federal regulations at
42 CFR § 433.112(b) —Mechanized Claims and Processing Information Retrieval
Systems.
For additional
questions on this CIB please contact EVV@cms.hhs.gov.
