Cheryl J. Roberts, Director Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS)

The Department of Medical Assistance Services (DMAS) received a Good Faith Extension from the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) to implement Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) requirements for Home Health Care Services (HHCS) on July 1, 2023.   DMAS has published an 837I companion guide on DMAS website at https://www.dmas.virginia.gov/for-providers/long-term-care/programs-and-initiatives/electronic-visit-verification.  This guide is important for your billing system to submit HHCS claims compliant with Virginia’s EVV requirements.  Virtual trainings will be available to providers of Home Health Care services beginning in February 2023.  Please refer to the DMAS website, here, to register for these upcoming training opportunities.

If you have any questions, please send your inquiry to EVV@dmas.virignia.gov.
