NY EVV + HHAeXchange overview
New York Department of Health (DOH) administers Medicaid EVV through HHAeXchange in an open-with-aggregator model. Providers can use any vendor that captures the 7 CMS-required data elements, and the data flows to the HHAeXchange aggregator for state visibility.
NY is one of the largest Medicaid markets for home care; the EVV scope includes traditional PCS / HHCS visits, CDPAP visits, and MLTC plans.
CDPAP and NY EVV
CDPAP (Consumer Directed Personal Assistance Program) lets Medicaid-eligible NY residents hire family members or close friends as paid caregivers. CDPAP visits require EVV submission to HHAeXchange.
Most CDPAP fiscal intermediaries (FIs) handle the EVV via HHAeXchange directly; some use third-party EHRs that export to HHAeXchange. AveeCare supports both workflows.
