Effective Jan. 1, 2023, all records submitted to the Sandata Aggregator by an Alt EVV vendor must indicate the location of each visit and specify home or community in the service location field for a visit to be validated. This applies to the following provider types:
- Home Health Services (HHS)
- Personal Care Services (PCS)
- Community Alternatives Program for Children and Disabled Adults (CAP/C and CAP/DA)
When the service location field is not completed, the Alt EVV vendor will receive an exception notice from Sandata that will prevent the visit data history from transmitting to NCTracks for claim processing.
Home is defined as the beneficiary’s address listed in EVV.
Community is defined as any/all other locations other than the beneficiary’s home address.
Alt EVV vendors are required to work with Sandata to identify system updates or modifications needed to include the home or community service location field with their verified visits that are transmitted to the Sandata Aggregator.
