Indiana Medicaid Approved EVV System

Alora is a certified alternate EVV vendor for Indiana Medicaid. Indian Medicaid EVV information captured by Alora is seamlessly transmitted to the Indiana Medicaid EVV aggregator, Sandata. Being the all-in-one solution for Indiana home care agencies, combining EVV and agency management in one system, Alora brings great efficiency and ease of use for your staff.

THE MAJOR UPSIDE OF EVV INTEGRATION

When you manage EVV outside of your home care software, you have to re-enter data. Manual entries take time and bring mistakes. Alora’s Home Care Software for Indiana already has all of the information for each visit — about the client, caregiver, agency, and service provided. That means, your caregivers do not have to re-enter information when they arrive at a patient’s home.  They can simply press Start Visit on the Alora system upon arrival.  Your office staff does not need to manually reenter EVV data into your agency management software.  Your agency gets the benefit of accuracy and efficiency.

So many Indiana agencies have chosen Alora Home Care Software to make their work-life easier AND make their business run better. Alora’s comprehensive (yet incredibly-easy-to-use) platform:

BILLING AND PAYROLL – QUICK AND ACCURATE

With EVV integrated, the electronic visit verification data captured during visits automatically flows into the full Alora system.

THRIVE WITH THE POWER OF AUTOMATED  HOMECARE SOFTWARE WORKFLOW

Alora’s automated workflow elevates your agency efficiency to an entirely new level. Compared with an agency that uses an alternative solution, your staff would have to navigate spending endless manual hours copying EVV data from another software into your system, just to ensure accurate billing. Agencies lose time and money with inefficiency that can never be recouped, not to mention the possibility of errors that require even more time to be corrected, causing frustration and putting your Medicaid reimbursement at risk.

ELECTRONIC VISIT VERIFICATION MADE EASY

Alora makes work life easier for your caregivers. With Alora, Simple is power. That power starts with the simple act of your caregiver pressing the “START VISIT” button on their smartphone or tablet from a patient’s home.

The convenience of fully integrated EVV within Alora Home Health Software‘s whole agency management system is that Alora has already populated all the relevant data for a scheduled visit when your caregiver arrives at the patient’s home…allowing the caregiver to focus solely on patient care. In comparison with a separate EVV solution that stores no prior data regarding the visit taking place, the advantage of Alora is clear.

With a separated system, there is no information on the patient’s Medicaid ID, the agency name, the caregiver’s information, or the tasks to be performed for the client. This places an undue burden on the caregiver to accurately enter all of this information when they get to the patient’s home. Unnecessary time consumption, human error, transmission mistakes, all of the variables that can frustrate your staff and prove costly to the agency, synergize into an end result that complicates the billing and confirmation process and obstructs delivering focused care for the patient. With Alora, complexity fades, creating a win/win for your staff and your patients.

CARE PLAN BASED VISIT NOTES FOR YOUR AIDES AND NURSES

Did your caregiver actually perform all of the tasks which were required within the plan of care? No need to worry about the answer as Alora generates patient-specific visit notes derived directly from the POC. Your home health aides and nurses can perform the required documentation directly inside the Alora EVV interface – simplifying their workflow.

How can we help you?

TELEPHONY

Don’t have Internet connectivity at your patient’s home, no problem! Alora also offers an integrated telephony solution as a back up to the GPS based EVV software. If your caregiver is at the patient’s home with no Internet connectivity, they can simply use the telephony solution to capture EVV.

Indiana Medicaid EVV Information

When did EVV start in Indiana?

The 21st Century Cures Act directs Medicaid programs to require personal care service and home health service providers to use an electronic visit verification (EVV) system to document services rendered. In the summer of 2020, the implementation date for requiring the use of an EVV system for personal care services was delayed to January 1, 2021. The implementation date for requiring the use of an EVV system for home health services remains January 1, 2023

What EVV systems can I use?

The 21st Century Cures Act directs Medicaid programs to require personal care service and home health service providers to use an electronic visit verification (EVV) system to document services rendered. Indiana has selected Sandata as an EVV provider system. The Sandata EVV system is Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act(HIPAA)-compliant and incorporates verification of the federally mandated data elements.

Alternate EVV Systems for Indiana

Providers may choose to use an EVV solution other than Sandata; however, providers will still be required to export data from their selected system to Sandata’s “Aggregator” for integration with CoreMMIS. This requirement will be necessary for documentation, billing, and reimbursement purposes.

Alora is an approved Alternate EVV vendor for the state of Indiana.
