Electronic Visit Verification
Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) is a technology used to verify that home or community-based service visits occur. The purpose of EVV is to ensure that services are delivered to members and that providers only bill for services rendered.
In Colorado, EVV has been mandatory since August 3, 2020
If you provide services that require EVV and have not yet enrolled, you MUST complete enrollment immediately to avoid potential denied claims!

New procedure codes are being introduced for Community First Choice (CFC) services starting July 2025. This does not change EVV data collection requirements. However, providers using a Provider Choice System must ensure their system is updated to recognize the new procedure codes and continue mapping to the correct EVV service group codes (which remain unchanged).
Refer to the Crosswalk of Codes – July 2025 and the EVV Program Manual for guidance.
