    Understanding South Dakota's Electronic Visit Verification

    Section 12006(a) of the 21st Century Cures Act mandates states to implement an Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) for all Medicaid personal care services beginning January 01, 2020.

    The Division of Long Term Service and Supports (LTSS) targeted January 2019 for piloting the EVV system with providers. To release a comprehensive EVV system and case management, LTSS decided to move the target date to May 2019 to identify a few providers to assist with piloting. The final implementation date is yet to be decided.

    What are the home care regulations & EVV rules in South Dakota?

    South Dakota is an ideal retirement choice for seniors, thanks to a low cost of living, no state income taxes, and quality care services. However, to maintain quality, the Division of Insurance of the South Dakota Department of Labor & Regulation regulates the home care industry in the state.

    Some laws and regulations which home care agencies must abide by:

    • The average pay for a caregiver is $17.26 per hour.
    • South Dakota home care providers must pay wages in cash or by check. A home care provider may also pay the worker by direct deposit in certain circumstances.
    • There are rules for pay frequency in South Dakota, which must be at least once in a calendar month, on regular paydays, agreed by the provider- well-in-advance.
    • The state does not have laws regarding the home care provider offering rest breaks or meal periods.
