2 What is EVV? Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) is a tool for electronically capturing point-of- service information for certain home and communitybased services.» Sandata Technologies is the ODM vendor.» The Ohio system provides near real-time processing capability» The Ohio system is a GPS-based system with telephony and manual visit entry as secondary data collection methods.

3 The 21 st Century Cures Act State Medicaid programs are required to implement EVV for personal care and home health services. EVV systems must capture the following elements:» The individual receiving services» The person providing services» The date and time of the service» The service provided» The location of the service 3

4 Congressional Changes to Cures Act Timelines Original deadlines were January 1, 2019 for personal care and January 1, In July 2018, Congress passed legislation shifting the personal care deadline to January 1, Failure to meet deadlines will result in reduction in federal matching funds for the impacted services. States can request a good faith extension up to 12 months for the personal care deadline. Ohio had already shifted the timeline for phase 2 to May There is no further change to the timeline anticipated at this time. 4
