Oregon uses an open EVV model: providers may use any Cures Act-compliant EVV vendor but must submit data to the state-operated eXPRS (Express Payment and Reporting System) aggregator. For personal care/IDD services, ODHS requires eXPRS Mobile-EVV; for home health agencies under OHA, providers submit via an EVV Reporting Template (CSV/Excel) to eXPRS, effective January 1, 2024. Telephonic/IVR check-in is available as a backup method within eXPRS. Oregon received a federal Good Faith Exemption with a compliance deadline of January 24, 2022.
What is EVV?
Electronic Visit Verification is the federal requirement (under the 21st Century Cures Act §12006) that personal-care and home-health visits paid by Medicaid be electronically captured at the point of care — who provided the service, who received it, where, when it started, and when it ended. CMS pushed enforcement to the states, which is why the day-to-day experience varies so much.
What "open model — choose any compliant vendor" means in Oregon
Providers may use the state-provided aggregator at no cost OR any third-party EVV system that meets the state's technical specification (often called "AltEVV"). Either way, visit data must reach the state in the required format.
How does Caregiver Scheduling integrate?
Caregiver Scheduling captures the six required EVV data points on every visit (caregiver, recipient, start time, end time, location, service type) with GPS-stamped clock-in and clock-out, and telephonic backup for caregivers without a smartphone. In open-model states, our visits are EVV-compliant on their own. In mandated-aggregator states, we forward verified visits to the state system on a nightly schedule so payroll and Medicaid billing stay in sync without double-entry.
