Electronic Visit Verification for Louisiana Medicaid Home Health Services

Sets out how the Agency uses electronic visit verification for Louisiana Medicaid nursing and therapy visits rendered in the home, as the 21st Century Cures Act and the LDH EVV Policy and Procedures (revised March 9, 2026) require, including the written internal policies LDH requires, clocking in and out, credentials, manual entries and edits, the connectivity test form, the utilization threshold, and ending access.

In short

  • Clock in when you arrive and clock out when you leave at every Louisiana Medicaid visit.
  • Never share your EVV password or log in as someone else. That is fraud.
  • If you miss a clock-in or clock-out, tell the office the same day and sign the correction.
  • Only a supervisor, in person, can fill out a connectivity test form for a home with no signal.
  • A broken phone or no data plan is not a reason for a manual entry.
