Electronic Visit Verification (EVV)
CDC+’s Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) system complies with the federally mandated 21st Century Cures Act’s requirement for certain providers of in-home services to log their visits through a tracking application and for consumers/Representatives to check these visits for accuracy. More information about the Cures Act can be found here.
Providers of Personal Care Assistance (PCA), In-Home Supports (IHS), Respite (RSPH and RSPD) and Nursing (PDL, PDR, SNL, and SNR) who do not meet the Department of Labor definition of a live-in provider are required to participate.
See page 56 of the How-to Guide and Fact Sheet #79B: Live-in Domestic Service Workers Under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) | U.S. Department of Labor for more information about who needs to use EVV.
Username and password information is mailed to providers and consumers/Representatives in the following fashion:
- Consultants are mailed passwords for their Consumers/Representatives.
- Consumers/Representatives are mailed their username and the passwords for their providers.
- Consumers/Representatives need to contact their Consultant to obtain their password.
- Directly-hired Employees, Independent Contractors and Agency/Vendors with only one employee who provide services to the consumer are mailed their usernames and must contact their consumers/Representatives for their passwords.
- Agency/Vendors with more than one employee who may provide services to a consumer are mailed all necessary credential information. Consultants and representatives will not receive these A/V’s EVV information.
CDC+ monitors for new consumers/Representatives and new providers and mail out credential information twice a week. Approved new providers do not have to wait until they receive their usernames/passwords to begin performing services.
The EVV system does not replace CDC+’s current timesheet or invoice requirements.How to Download CDC+ EVV Application
