EVV Billing In-Home vs. Out-of-Home for HCS and TxHmL Home Health Care Services (HHCS)
Date: August 27, 2024 Attention: Home and Community-Based Services (HCS) and TxHmL Stakeholders
Call to action:Texas Children’s Health Plan (TCHP) would like to share guidance from Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) regarding how to bill for HHCS delivered in-home versus out-of-home. Outlined below is information that all HCS and TxHmL stakeholders should review prior to billing their HHCS claims.
Resource:EVV Home Health Care Services Bill Codes Table (PDF) on the HHSC EVV webpage to ensure you’re using the appropriate Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS) and Modifiers before submitting the EVV claim.
How this impacts providers:Billing Combinations for HHCS
HHSC created new Long-Term Care billing combinations to submit claims for EVV and non-EVV service delivery locations.
Services that begin or end in a member’s own home or family home setting will require an EVV visit match. Services provided out-of-home in the Community or in Other Residential Type settings will not require an EVV visit match.
Next step for Providers:Providers should share this communication with their staff and utilize the following training resources from HHSC, if needed, for program providers and FMSAs to prevent EVV claim mismatches when submitting EVV claims for HCS and TxHmL services:
