UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Arizona is compliant with Section 1903 of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1396b), also known as the 21st Century Cures Act, and the requirements set forth by AHCCCS; the Arizona State Medicaid program. This consists of the implementation of Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) for non-skilled in-home services (attendant care, personal care, homemaker, habilitation, respite) and in-home skilled nursing services (home health) as of Jan. 1, 2021 with EVV Hard Edits effective as of Jan. 1, 2023.
Please use the UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Arizona Electronic Visit Verification Hard Edit Interactive Guide to learn more about complying with EVV requirements to prevent unnecessary claim denials. We encourage you to review this resource with your organization. For questions, please refer to the Resources section of the guide for additional contact information. More information can be found on the AHCCCS Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) Website.
UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Arizona would like to encourage our provider community using EVV to have a policy in place outlining their process for following all of the provider requirements, as specified in AMPM 540. A policy may be essential in the future for potential review and auditing purposes.
For Aggregator account access, your agency must have an EVV contact on file. You can find details in our EVV Contact Add/Update User Manual. You can also use this process if you need to update your EVV contact or if you are using an Alternate EVV vendor.
