Welcome to GordanJacobs™ EVV Service Bureau The GordanJacobs™ Firm, a national medical billing operation located in Connecticut has opened an EVV Service Bureau division to assist the Home Health Service Providers with services related to electronic visit verification systems through our exclusive EVV Management Service Solution. Our History:  In 2009, Joe Graley started a small medical billing company called JF Graley & Associates with the focus on the medical claims operations within the patient management process. The goal was to increase practice revenues by reducing claim rejection and denials, thus increasing practice profits while lowering fixed operational costs for clients. Utilizing Joe Graley's technology background, claim processing methodologies were developed and perfected. These perfected processing methodologies were offered to medical providers and JF Graley & Associates grew to serve clients throughout New England as a leading medical billing outsource solution. Early in 2015, Joe Graley set his sights on creating a national brand for medical billing services offered nationwide and the GordanJacobs™ Firm was formed. The EVV Service Bureau: In early 2016, a few of our billing clients contacted the Firm to discuss the forthcoming EVV System that was to be mandated within the state of Connecticut for the Home Health Service Providers. Since the GordanJacobs™ Firm was currently managing their Medicaid claims, it was a natural fit for our Firm to manage their evv system as well. Again, leaning on Joe Graley's technology background and claims processing experience, he studied the objectives, requirements and procresses of the evv system platform from a client business perspective. He began to develop processing methodologies to effectively manage critical day-to-day operations and enhance an evv system performance. These processing methodologies later evolved into the Service Modules now offered within the EVV Management Service Solution (EVVM) offered to Home Health Service Providers nationwide through the GordanJacobs™ EVV Service Bureau. Currently the GordanJacobs™ Firm offers its EVVM services to providers in 17 states and growing. Why Is EVV Here? On December 13, 2016 then President Obama signed the 21st Century Cures Act which promotes and funds the acceleration of research into preventing and curing serious illnesses; accelerates drug and medical device development; attempts to address the opioid abuse crisis; and tries to improve mental health service delivery. The Act includes a number of provisions that push for greater interoperability, adoption of electronic health records (EHRs) and support for human services programs. The 21st Century Cures Act is broad and covers many health-related topics, including requirements for electronic visit verification (evv). The bill outlines that each state will be allowed to decide how visits are verified. Each state must institute evv for Medicaid programs by January 1, 2019, or they will be faced with reduced government payments. In regards to personal care services or home health care services, “electronic visit verification system” means visits conducted as part of such services are electronically verified relating to the: Type of service performed Individual receiving the service Date of service Location of service delivery Individual providing the service Time the service begins and ends The 21st Century Cures Act does not mandate a specific verification system, creating an opportunity for providers to collaborate and lobby their states to adopt “open” evv standards. In this case, the provider could supply the data to the state using one of five verification methods that best suits their agency’s needs. However, if states do mandate a particular vendor or evv system, providers may be challenged with costly vendor changes or accepting inferior verification methods. Your Department of Social Services (DSS), their MMIS contractor may be working to implement evv in conjunction with your state Medical Assistance Program. What We Do:  Our Firm specializes in the claims operations within the clinical, non-clinical and home health services area using the evv system platform. We assist our clients with the tedious daily tasks in follow-up exception confirmations and claims billing through our exclusive EVV Management Service Solution (EVVM). More importantly, our EVVM Service Solution ensures that your agency maximizes the monetary value of each consumer/client care plan while reducing adjudication liabilities and compliance liabilities found within the current version of the evv system platform. For the first time your state agency now has “eyes” into your daily operation with regards to your staff, consumer care plans, scheduling, performance, documentation, and billing practices. The use of the evv system within your agency will offer benefits by increasing performance levels of services offered and create efficiencies within your operation. However, such benefits will come at a cost to your operation. The big question is will the benefits of the evv system outweigh the cost to your current operation? Protecting Your Revenue Understand this, the evv system, by design, was developed to cut operational cost and reduce revenues paid onto the provider of services (YOU) from state and federal Medicaid programs. The operation of your evv system will require trained, dedicated staff that will interact with the system daily to reduce potential revenue loss that will impact your business. Will your operation be successful with EVV? The GordanJacobs™ Firm has developed a powerful service solution to assist the Home Health Service Providers with the management of their evv system platform throughout the USA.
