EVV Billed Units Must Match Billed Hours
Date: 07/15/26
Sunshine Health is letting providers who rely on Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) know that Florida third-party providers' billed units and hours must match the payer’s unit calculations for claims submitted through HHAeXchange.
Total billed hours are calculated based on:
- When the visit starts
- When the visit ends
What Does This Mean for EVV Providers?
- Once the visit is imported, the system will compare the billed units to the system’s calculation.
- Billed units must match the system’s calculation for a claim submission to be successful.
- If the billed units and hours are higher than the system calculation, you will receive this message: Billed units and hours mismatch. Visit cannot be billed.
Ensure Successful Claims and Billing
- A provider's agency management system must correctly calculate and round units before they submit visits through HHAeXchange for billing.
- Mismatches must be fixed before visits are billed.
Note: These requirements only apply to third-party EVV providers using EDI Billing Rates.
