All states: EVV requirements map
In short: Agencies choose their own EVV system and report monthly. Homecare workers paid by the state use the separate state system (OR PTC DCI). Change ahead: Oregon's contractor is bringing agency EVV vendors onto a new aggregator. No mandatory date has been published.
| EVV model | Hybrid. Agencies choose their own EVV system (Provider Choice). Workers paid by the state use a state system. |
|---|---|
| State EVV system | OR PTC DCI, for state-paid homecare workers and personal care attendants only. Agencies are not given a state system. |
| Aggregator | DCI Data Aggregator, run by Acumen with ODHS and OHA. Agency EVV vendors are being onboarded in waves. We found no mandatory date. |
| Can I use my own EVV vendor? | Yes for in-home care agencies and home health agencies. No for state-paid homecare workers. |
| How do agencies report EVV today? | A monthly EVV report. In-home care agencies report to ODHS with an attestation. Home health agencies report to OHA. |
| Are claims denied without EVV? | It depends on the program. Home health services that are not EVV compliant are ineligible for payment. We did not find a claim denial edit for in-home care agencies. |
| I/DD services | Separate track. ODDS uses eXPRS for EVV and billing. |

Oregon does not give Medicaid in-home care agencies or home health agencies a state EVV system. Each agency chooses its own EVV software, a model Oregon calls Provider Choice. Under the administrative rules in force, the agency verifies each visit at the time of service and then sends the state a monthly EVV report.
Oregon runs EVV separately by program, so the first step is to know which track you are on:
OHA does not grant an agency-level exception from EVV for home health. A limited exception for an individual or a rendering provider may be allowed.
It depends on the program. For home health, the rule is direct: services that are not EVV compliant are ineligible for payment and may be denied or recovered from the agency. For in-home care agencies, the rule requires a monthly attestation that every submitted claim met EVV requirements, and we did not find an explicit claim denial or payment hold tied to an EVV match.
In practice, the agencies that stay out of trouble are the ones that review visit exceptions every day, so the monthly report and the claims already agree by the time either one is sent.
Homecare workers and personal care attendants who are paid by the state use OR PTC DCI (Oregon Provider Time Capture, Direct Care Innovations). This is a closed track. No other EVV system is accepted for these workers, and it is separate from the rules for agencies.
Only three OR PTC DCI methods count as EVV compliant: the mobile application, a landline, and a fob. A time entry that is edited after it is captured is no longer EVV compliant, and neither is a web portal entry made without a fob code.
Two other programs have their own arrangements, and most home care agencies will only touch them at the edges:
Important: Oregon's aggregation contractor is onboarding agency EVV vendors to a visit-level data aggregator, but as of our last check we did not find a state notice that sets a mandatory date or says the monthly EVV report is going away. Keep sending your monthly report until ODHS or OHA tells you otherwise in writing.
Oregon appears to be moving agency EVV from monthly reports toward visit-by-visit aggregation, but the timing is not final. Acumen works with ODHS and OHA to provide State of Oregon EVV data aggregation through the DCI Data Aggregator. The contractor's Oregon EVV specifications, last updated in July 2026, name two programs in scope: ODHS in-home care agencies (attendant care and personal care services billed as S5125 and T1019) and OHA home health agencies.
What the documentation describes:
What we did not find: a mandatory start date for agencies, a statement on whether aggregation replaces the monthly report, any link between an aggregation failure and claim payment, or a public list of onboarded vendors. A sensible step now is to ask your EVV vendor where it stands in Oregon's onboarding, and to watch for notices from ODHS (in-home care) or OHA (home health).
We found no upcoming change for state-paid homecare workers on OR PTC DCI, for I/DD services in eXPRS, or for the Independent Choices Program.
