What is EVV?
EVV tracking is a process that uses electronic means to verify caregiver visits for personal or home care services provided and reimbursed under Medicaid. Verifying visits is required under the 21st Century Cures Act, which took effect in 2016, and it applies to every state. Acumen has chosen Direct Care Innovations as our EVV vendor.
