    Understanding Iowa's Electronic Visit Verification

    The state of Iowa has decided to use an open vendor model, in which it picks one aggregator (in this case, CareBridge). The home care providers and MCOs are allowed to keep using their current EVV systems as long as they comply with federal EVV regulations.

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

    Iowa is one of the few states that exempt private non-medical home care providers from state licensing. However, the state strictly enforces compliance with all relevant state and federal laws in order to prevent elder abuse, appropriately provide medication, and guarantee competent home care is operating. Additionally, service providers who offer Medicaid-covered services in Iowa must abide by the Iowa Department of Human Services guidelines. A few of the state rules your home care agency should refer to are as follows:

    • Medicaid-funded programs that provide in-home care services must develop and maintain care plans for beneficiaries.
    • Nonmedical caregivers in Iowa are prohibited from administering any type of prescription or over-the-counter medications.
    • According to Iowa Code section 135C.33, a criminal background check must be conducted before home care professionals, or caregivers begin working.
    • In Iowa, there are no state-mandated training requirements for non-medical in-home caregivers, although employers typically insist that their staff members hold a basic first aid certification.
    • The average caregiver salary in Iowa is ~ $13.77.

    CareSmartz360’s home care management software and GPS-enabled technology allow Iowa-based home care businesses to meet EVV mandates and other regulations laid out by the State. Additionally, the agencies can ensure that their demands for billing, care plans, and other operational requirements are met.
