Fidelis Care is continuing efforts to ensure compliance with Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) requirements under the 21st Century Cures Act. As part of this work, Fidelis Care has partnered with HHAeXchange (HHAX), a home care management solutions vendor.  Providers may choose to use HHAX to submit claims; however, the system must be used for EVV.
