Electronic Visit Verification is a computer-based system that verifies the occurrence of personal attendant service visits by electronically documenting the time a visit begins and ends. Texas requires EVV for certain Medicaid funded home and community-based services provided through the Health and Human Service Commission and Managed Care Organizations.

BCBSTX allows for EVV claims to be submitted with a span date. If a provider chooses to submit a claim with a span date, the provider must ensure that:
- Each date within the span has one or more matching EVV visit transactions.
- The total units on the EVV claim must match the combined total units of the matched EVV visit transactions.
