Important Reminders:

As a reminder, RI EOHHS has recently deployed the Client Verification functionality which will require all caregivers to have members verify the service provided, time of service provided, and either a verbal or written signature. These data elements will be required for TVV and SMC. If these data elements are not captured as part of the visit, it will result in exceptions in Visit Maintenance
