Electronic Visit Verification for Medi-Cal Home Health Care Services
Captures every Medi-Cal home health care services visit through California Electronic Visit Verification (CalEVV), or an approved alternate system that sends data to CalEVV, recording the six data elements the 21st Century Cures Act requires; sets out check-in and check-out, corrections, and the match between the EVV record, the clinical note, and the claim.
