NAHC Releases White Paper on EVV and Home Health Services

NAHC

The requirement for State Medicaid agencies to implement EVV for Medicaid-funded home health services is in less than a month, with a January 1, 2024 deadline. Some states are already operational while others will not be able to implement on time. However, the majority of states will move forward with the requirements in January. This creates several important items for home health agencies to be aware of to ensure that there are no delays in billing or issues with denials due to incomplete or missing EVV data.

States should currently be engaged in outreach and education campaigns to ensure that providers are aware of the requirements and the steps needed to be compliant with the new requirements.

NAHC has published a white paper to remind providers of the upcoming requirement and to provide information about the options that providers can discuss with states to try and make the transition more manageable.
