Is EVV the Same as a Time Clock?

EVV verifies the visit

EVV is usually about proving that a covered visit happened: who received service, who provided it, where it happened, and when the visit started and ended.

That record matters, especially when EVV is required.

Time tracking reviews the workday

A time clock answers a different set of payroll questions:

• What hours did the employee work?
• Did the caregiver travel between visits?
• Was a missed punch corrected with a reason?
• Did a supervisor approve the final time?
• Can the agency find the record later?

Some agencies need both

If an EVV system also gives the agency a complete payroll workflow, one system may be enough.

If the office still handles missed punches, travel time, mileage notes, approvals, and payroll exports somewhere else, EVV alone has not solved the time-tracking problem.
