What people are saying about our enterprise solutions
Robust, yet easy to use comprehensive and customizable software!
Carevoyant allows multiple admissions (one for each payer) within One Patient Medical Record. All of its components including intake, scheduling, clinical, Document management, Reports (automated reporting can be set up to receive reports as needed or desired), KPI Dashboards, EVV, billing, payroll etc are very well designed to maximize workflow. It has great support and development teams, they help within minutes, and they are always open to suggestions for enhancements.
Other software may "appear" to be easier to use but they end up being more tedious in the end (from self-experience) because they lack the tools needed to be a top-of-the-line Agency!
James Martin, RN/CEO Administrator
The CareVoyant solution covers all our home care processes
The CareVoyant solution fulfills the EVV requirement by providing employees with a smartphone mobile app, telephony, and/or electronic keys which is integrated into their software.
The benefit will be extremely beneficial where Real time verification will reduced the potential for fraud and/or abuse. Currently, verifying employee schedules is a manual process, which consumes many hours. Since CareVoyant EVV is integrated with scheduling, automatically verifying schedules greatly reduce these hours. Scheduling issues can be addressed on a daily, not weekly, basis. Since schedule verification will be quicker, this means creating and submitting claims can be more timely.

Georgia Home Care & EVV Compliance
The Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH) oversees the state’s Electronic Visit Verification (EVV), which applies to all Medicaid-funded services requiring an in-home visit. The goal is to help improve care quality by making caregiver activities transparent and reduces the likelihood for error or fraud by identifying the patient, the caregiver's location, clock-in and clock-out times, and services provided.

EVV Compliance Challenges in Georgia
Connectivity Issues
Georgia has many high-demand rural areas that have poor connectivity. Utilizing an EVV vendor that backs up collected data can help providers capture accurate and complete EVV data.
Integration with Netsmart
Integrating seamlessly with Netsmart, Georgia’s designated EVV aggregator, is crucial for accurate authorizations, data reporting, and avoiding noncompliance penalties.
Field Staff Training and Education
Georgia recognizes that training staff to be EVV compliant can be challenging. Newly onboarded caregivers should receive prompt technical training and have technical assistance available. All caregivers should be trained on any changes to GA State EVV requirements.
Georgia Home Care Market Statistics
Growing Medicaid Home Care Demand: Over 400,000 Georgia residents depend on Medicaid home and community-based services, with demand steadily increasing due to an aging population and expanding eligibility under Georgia’s Elderly and Disabled Waiver Program.
Georgia Medicaid Spending: Georgia allocates more than $16 billion annually to Medicaid, with a growing share committed to Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) to support aging in place and reduce institutional care costs.
Caregiver Workforce Shortage: Georgia is expected to see a 29% shortage in home health and personal care aides by 2030, making workforce recruitment, retention, and scheduling more challenging for home care providers.
High EVV Compliance Adoption: Over 75% of home care agencies in Georgia have adopted state-approved EVV solutions, complying with Georgia Department of Community Health (DCH) requirements and integrating with the state’s designated EVV aggregator.
