Colorado Gives Providers 6-Month Grace Period for EVV Implementation

Colorado providers will have a 6-month grace period after the January 1, 2019 EVV implementation. During this time, they are expected to use their EVV systems correctly, but their claims will not be affected. After the grace period, their claims will not be reimbursed unless they are EVV compliant.

Colorado has contracted with Sandata for a statewide EVV system, but providers are free to use any EVV system they choose, as long as it meets federal guidelines and is capable of communicating with Sandata through a data aggregator.

Programs Affected: Personal care and home health services
