Description: In this topic, the user will learn how to create a FOB client attestation (*EVV) punch in the mobile app. The DCI FOB is an alternative method of client attestation (*EVV) that can be used when the employee does not have a smartphone/device and the client does not have a landline. The FOB is a small device that is secured in the client’s home.

*Please note: EVV is determined by each state in conjunction with federal law.

The instructions below are for collecting portal signoff attestation at clock out only, however, portal signoff attestation may be prompted at intervals determined by the organization. Options include:

  • Clock in only

  • Clock out only

  • Clock in and clock out

  • Clock in, clock out, and defined intervals (i.e., hourly)

FOB EVV is not available for all organizations. There is a replacement cost for lost, missing, or broken FOBs. An instance-level setting must be enabled to use the FOB and mobile app together.

Role Required: Employee (base user)

Permission Required: N/A
