UPDATED KMAP BULLETIN: UPDATED Reminder of Guidance on Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) Requirements
Date: 03/13/25
KMAP GENERAL BULLETIN 23349 (PDF)
Updates are indicate by bold italics.
Effective December 3, 2023, the requirement for EVV transactions, used for home and community-based services (HCBS) and non-waiver personal care services (PCS), was extended to include home health care services (HHCS) for home health visits.
For a list of the service codes requiring EVV, please see below. Home health care service providers will continue to submit claims for their services through the KMAP portal.
Effective February 6, 2025, home and community-based services and non-waiver PCS requiring EVV must be captured in AuthentiCare and claims for these services must be submitted through AuthentiCare.
Effective March 1, 2025, “original” claims for EVV covered services not submitted through AuthentiCare will be rejected by the payors/Managed Care Organizations (MCOs). Adjustment claims can be submitted directly to the payors/MCOs.
