Behavior Analysis Fee-for-Service
Provider Type(s): 39
Regions 9, 10, and 11
Electronic Visit Verification Implementation Date Change – Now April 1, 2020
The Agency for Health Care Administration (Agency) has delayed the mandatory go-live date for behavior analysis (BA) electronic visit verification (EVV) in Regions 9, 10, and 11 to April 1, 2020. This is to ensure that providers have additional time to resolve any technical issues related to the TELLUS EVV System, and to ensure that group administrators have updated the TELLUS EVV System with their rendering providers’ unique contact information.
Take Action Now to Ensure You Can Receive Payment
In order to be ready by the mandatory start date of April 1, 2020, it is the responsibility of the group administrator to ensure that all of their rendering providers have unique contact information in the TELLUS EVV System no later than March 13, 2020.
- Detailed instructions for how group administrators can update provider contact information (email address and phone number), via the TELLUS EVV System, are available by using the following link: AHCA BA • Updated Instructions to Resolve Provider Contact Information.
Rendering providers should also ensure that the Florida Medicaid Management Information System (FMMIS) has their most current and unique contact information. To update the FMMIS, providers should access the secure Portal at: https://home.flmmis.com/home. Detailed instructions can be found at: https://mobilecaregiverplus.com/ahca-ba-•-instructions-to-update-provider-contact-information. Do not delay — Once updated in the FMMIS, it can take several days before the new information is in the TELLUS EVV System to allow visit scheduling.
