EVV - Overview

Does EVV apply to live-in/24-hour Personal Supports?

  • CMS does not require EVV in congregate living settings such as licensed homes (foster/group homes). Additionally, EVV is not required in a person’s own home if one of the 3 criteria is met: The caregiver (or in the case of an agency delivering services, the employee of the caregiver) resides on the same premises as the individual to whom services are being provided seven days per week and has no other home of his/her own, The caregiver lives, works, and sleeps on the same premises as the individuals to whom services are being provided for five consecutive days a week for a period of 120 hours or more, or  if the caregiver spends less than 120 hours per week sleeping and working on the premises, spends five consecutive nights residing on the premises.

    Providers of Personal Supports and Respite who meet the EVV exemption requirements must ensure that service delivery documentation is submitted in iConnect.
