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!
CareVoyant has the needed tools to overcome the challenges of managing a home health agency.

New York Home Care & EVV Compliance
New York's Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) system is governed by the New York State Department of Health (NYSDOH), which oversees the state’s Medicaid program. The New York EVV mandate applies to all Medicaid-funded personal care and home health services, ensuring that visits are electronically verified to comply with the 21st Century Cures Act, reduce fraud, and improve billing accuracy.
Key New York EVV Regulations
Aggregator: New York utilizes eMedNY as its state-designated EVV data aggregator, operated by Gainwell Technologies. All EVV data from providers must be transmitted to eMedNY, whether using the state-sponsored solution or an approved alternate EVV vendor. Secondary aggregators include CareBridge and HHAeXchange.
EVV Model: New York follows a Provider Choice Model, allowing home care agencies to select their preferred EVV software provider, provided the system complies with NYSDOH technical specifications and successfully integrates with eMedNY.
Service Types Covered: EVV is required for Medicaid-funded Personal Care Services (PCS) and Home Health Care Services (HHCS) delivered under fee-for-service and Medicaid managed care plans across New York State.
Implementation Deadlines:
PCS: January 1, 2021
HHCS: January 1, 2023
EVV Compliance Challenges in New York
Managed Care & Multi-Payer Complexity
Agencies must ensure EVV data aligns not only with state requirements but also with varying MCO billing rules. Differences in authorization formats, service codes, and submission timelines can increase the risk of claim denials or delays.
Provider Choice Model & eMedNY Data Integration
Agencies using third-party EVV systems must ensure successful transmission of required visit data to eMedNY. Integration errors, rejected files, or formatting inconsistencies can create compliance gaps and reimbursement issues.
Increased Oversight & EVV Data Validation Audits
Missing clock-in/clock-out data, incorrect caregiver identifiers, location discrepancies, or mismatched service authorizations may trigger audits, corrective action plans, or payment recoupments.
New York Home Care Market Statistics
Growing Medicaid Home Care Demand: New York serves over 250,000 Medicaid home care beneficiaries through programs such as Managed Long Term Care (MLTC) and personal care services, making it one of the largest home care markets in the country. An aging population continues to drive strong demand for in-home services.
Caregiver Workforce Challenges: New York faces ongoing home health aide workforce shortages, particularly in rural and upstate regions, increasing recruitment, retention, and scheduling pressures for agencies.
High EVV Adoption & Compliance Requirements: New York mandates EVV compliance for Medicaid-funded personal care and home health services. Agencies must integrate with the state’s EVV system through approved vendors to ensure claim acceptance and reimbursement accuracy.
