21-616 Complete Required DHCS Survey by September 1, 2021

Date: 08/25/21

This survey is only applicable to providers who render home health care services

Visit Survey Monkey to complete the survey by September 1, 2021. The survey takes approximately 15 minutes.

Why do I need to take this survey?

The Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) is overseeing the statewide implementation of the federal Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) requirements.

If you render home health care services (HHCS) under Social Security Act (SSA) section 1905(a)(7), you are subject to the federal EVV mandate. Visit SSA website for more information.

The purpose of this survey is for DHCS to get information about the needs of providers who are required to implement an EVV solution.

Implementation of EVV is a federal mandate. It requires states to implement an EVV system to verify that Medicaid HHCS (that require an in-home visit by a provider) were actually furnished to the beneficiary.

How does taking this survey help me?

In an effort to ensure that all EVV-affected programs have the information needed to adhere to the federal mandate, the DHCS will provide regular EVV updates, trainings, and guidance, regarding EVV implementation, by email and through information posted on the DHCS’ website.
