Alora’s EVV for DMAS is an enhanced Virginia EVV system built into a robust home care agency management software.  Alora software supports Virginia agencies providing Personal Care, Companion Care, Respite Services, and Skilled Home Health Services in fulfilling the DMAS EVV requirements while improving operational efficiency.

AVOID CLAIM DENIALS

Virginia Medicaid requires that the EVV data captured to be transmitted as part of the electronic claim file (837P format for non-skilled and 837I for skilled services).  Because EVV is integrated within Alora Home Health Software for Virginia, the EVV information captured by Alora automatically flows into claims.  Alora includes the required EVV data elements into the electronic claim files per Virginia Medicaid specifications for DMAS and MCOs.

ELECTRONIC CLAIMS FOR ALL VIRGINIA PAYERS

Alora can generate electronic claim files for all payers including, DMAS, Aetna, Anthem, Magellan, OptimaHealth, United Healthcare, or Virginia Premier. In addition, for Anthem patient visits, Alora can automatically transmit claim-ready EVV information to Tellus/Netsmart, per Anthem requirements. DMAS and MCOs will no longer accept paper claims or DDE.

Is your agency at risk for claim denials?  Virginia agencies need a robust system that integrates EVV into electronic claims to eliminate the risk of claim denials.  With Alora, you can rest easy.

INTEGRATED DMAS FORMS

With Alora, you won’t have to wonder if your aides actually do what was required on the plan of care. The system can help you stay compliant.

LIVE-MONITORING

Alora offers live-monitoring of home visits, alerting your agency for delayed visits and no-shows. This capability gives a real-time view of what is happening with home visits, by the minute.  It helps your agency stay compliant while avoiding lost revenue due to missed visits.  With Alora, agencies are in full control of what goes on in the field.

BILLING AND PAYROLL – FASTER AND ACCURATE

As soon as your caregiver leaves patients home, the visit in the Alora system gets updated with the start and end time and is marked as completed. Instantly, the visit becomes ready for billing and payroll. Any visit that did not occur as planned is flagged for manual review.

AUTOMATE AND THRIVE

The power your agency will achieve from Alora’s integrated EVV solution is the automation.  Such automation will elevate your agency’s workflow to a much greater level of efficiency.  Your agency will be ready for accurate billing and payroll from the moment the caregiver leaves a patient’s home.

Compare this to an agency that does not have the Alora system. They have to commit several manual hours daily to copy all the EVV data into their system, in order to be able to do billing and payroll accurately. This slow, labor-intensive, process not only costs time and money but also is prone to errors which will put their Medicaid reimbursement at risk.

THE MAJOR UPSIDE OF EVV INTEGRATION

Alora makes work life easier for your caregivers. The benefit of having EVV fully integrated within Alora’s Virginia home health software is that Alora already knows everything about the visit when your caregiver arrives at the patient’s home. Therefore, your caregiver can simply press “Start Visit” upon arrival and proceed with patient care.

Compare this to a standalone EVV system that does not have any prior knowledge of the visit. It doesn’t know the client’s Medicaid ID, the agency, the caregiver, or the service being provided. Your caregiver has to enter all of this upon arrival. This entry takes time and often leads to mistakes. Mistakes are costly because they frustrate your caregivers, delay the care for the patient, and unrectified mistakes can affect the reimbursements for your agency.

CARE PLAN BASED VISIT NOTES

Did your caregiver actually do what was required in the patient’s plan of care? You won’t have to wonder – Alora home care software generates patient-specific visit notes that are derived from the POC.  Your caregivers can perform their documentation right from the Alora EVV interface – making their workflow simple.

How can we help you?

EMPOWER YOUR AIDES

Alora empowers aides with a software tool to, not only capture electronic visit verification but also check their schedules, look up client information, complete plan of care based visit note and communicate with the agency through secure mail with text notification. Your aides can access the Alora software from their smartphones or any other mobile devices.

EMPOWER YOUR NURSES

Alora is a nurse-friendly home health software. In addition to capturing EVV information, nurses can complete their visit notes and assessments right at the patient’s home while having access to all relevant clinical information in the palm of their hand. The EVV component of Alora provides nurses quick access to skilled nursing visit notes and OASIS assessments ensuring that their workflow at the patient’s home is easy and straightforward.

TELEPHONY

No Internet connectivity at the patient’s home? No problem. Alora provides telephony solution as a back up to the GPS based EVV software. When your caregiver is at the patient’s home and does not have Internet connectivity, she can simply use the telephony solution to capture EVV.

ALL-IN-ONE POWER

Alora is not just an EVV vendor for Virginia agencies. It is a powerful home care software for Virginia agencies to meet their operational, financial and clinical needs of their business.
