Florida EVV Compliance Guide 2026 — What Home Care Agencies Need to Know

Florida’s EVV framework

Florida follows federal EVV requirements under the 21st Century Cures Act, which mandates electronic verification for Medicaid-funded personal care services and home health care services.

Required data points

Every verified visit must capture: type of service, service recipient, date, caregiver ID, start and end time, and location. Tendara captures all six automatically through GPS-enabled clock-in on the caregiver’s smartphone.

APD waiver providers

Florida APD (Agency for Persons with Disabilities) iBudget waiver providers must also comply with EVV requirements. Tendara supports APD habilitation services with ISP goal tracking alongside EVV capture.

Staying audit-ready

Consistent EVV capture is the foundation of audit readiness. Tendara’s compliance dashboard shows your real-time compliance rate and flags non-compliant visits immediately so you can resolve issues before they become claim denials.
