Attention EVV Providers - Electronic Visit Verification (EVV)

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) permitted states that anticipated being unable to meet the implementation deadline to submit a request for a Good Faith Effort Exemption (GFEE). A GFEE approval allows states to implement EVV for Home Health Care Services (HHCS) after the required deadline of Jan. 1, 2023, without CMS applying a Federal Medical Assistance Percentage legislated penalty. NC Medicaid submitted a GFEE request to CMS and was granted approval.

Timelines for implementation of EVV are noted below for each health plan below. Please note: dates below will be adjusted due to Tailored Plan launch delay.
