    Understanding Alabama's Electronic Visit Verification

    The Government of Alabama has mandated that all Medicaid-funded home care agencies implement Electronic Visit Verification (EVV).

    EVV PHASE I:

    Alabama Medicaid implemented Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) for HCBS waiver services using AuthentiCare as the sole system. The first phase launched on October 1, 2017, with no option for providers to use alternate EVV solutions.

    EVV Phase II

    Alabama Medicaid adopted an open-model EVV system on February 1, 2022, allowing providers to use the state system or submit third-party EVV data via EDI.

    What are the home care regulations & EVV rules in Alabama?

    Holding a governmental or third-party certification is not mandatory for caregivers who provide a range of services to the elderly. Alabama home care aides have different requirements, which depend on employment circumstances. A few of them are as follows:

    • Alabama has set standards at a nationally mandated level. The home care aide must have at least 75 hours of training.
    • A high school diploma or GED is the standard requirement. Alternatively, candidates who completed the 11th grade may qualify if they have 1 year of relevant experience, or 10th grade with 2 years of experience.
    • Home health and personal care aide jobs are expected to grow by 21% nationwide between 2023 and 2033.
    • Alabama follows the federal overtime rule—paying 1.5 times the regular hourly rate for hours worked beyond 40 in a workweek.
    • The federal and state government jointly funds Medicaid in Alabama. Medicaid's matching rate is 70 percent federal and 30 percent state. The matching rate depends on the state's per capita income and changes yearly.
