Provider Alert! Retrospective Review of Paid Claims with Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) Claims Matching
Date: September 10, 2021
Attention: STAR Kids Providers/Personal Care Services & FMSA Providers
Effective Date: September 10, 2021
Call to action: In alignment with HHSC requirements, Texas Children’s Health Plan will begin a review of paid claims that require a matching EVV transaction for dates of service March 21, 2020 – December 31, 2020. Claims that were bypassed under the “EVV007 – Match Not Required” exception were granted 180 days to complete the necessary visit maintenance. This time period has now lapsed. Upon the claims review, if paid claims do not have a complete match to an accepted EVV visit transaction, EVV Overpayment Procedures will commence. Providers with identified EVV overpayment claims will receive a notification letter in the mail with detailed information regarding the procedures and timeline requirements.
Next Steps for providers:
Providers should review the EVV Claim Match Reconciliation Report within the Texas Medicaid & Healthcare Partnership (TMHP) EVV Portal to review paid claims for the impacted date range to ensure claims have the appropriate accepted matching EVV transaction information.
