Electronic Visit Verification for Home Care Agencies - A Primer
21st Century Cures Act supports seamless and secure access, exchange, and use of electronic health information. The rule is designed to give patients, and their healthcare providers secure access to health information.
Successful implementation of EVV at home care agencies will require a complete understanding of EVV requirements by states and selecting the right partner to meet those disparate and complex requirements.
Home-based services are changing the way patients receive care. There has been growing demand for home-based services, with the home care market forecasted to grow by 50% over 5 years, from $226 billion in 2022 to $340 billion by 2027. As the demand for home care grows, software designed for home care advances alongside.
Home Care Software should provide home care agencies with tools to not only improve operational efficiency, but also personalize patient care to ensure high-quality, long-lasting patient outcomes. From Patient Intake and Scheduling to real-time communication and documentation, the right Home Care Software will enable home care agencies to tailor care to each patient’s unique requirements.
Investing in the right Home Care Software for CDS can help home care agencies efficiently leverage the opportunities CDS presents. An integrated software platform that can manage CDS and other services like Private Duty Nursing, Non-Medical Personal Care, Home and Community Based Services (HCBS), Home Health, will help agencies manage Consumer Directed Home Care Services and grow the agency by expanding services in other areas.
Stay ahead of the curve by integrating key software features optimized for Consumer Directed Services (CDS), positioning your agency for sustained success.
