Electronic Visit Verification and Service Verification
Sets how the Agency uses Ohio's electronic visit verification (EVV) system for Medicaid visits that must be verified, how aides check in and out, when telephone or manual entry may be used, the annual signed consent required before GPS is used, how exceptions are resolved before claims are paid, and the ODA and ODM service verification items every visit record must contain.

In short
- Check in with the EVV app when you arrive and check out when you leave, for every visit.
- If the app does not work, use the telephone option. Manual entry needs a supervisor's approval and a reason.
- GPS is only turned on if the client signed a consent for this year. The client can say no at any time.
- Never change visit times to make a visit look different from what happened.
- For help with the state EVV system, call 855-805-3505.
