The following is an example of how to clock in using phone EVV for real-time punches. Please note that the questions or voice prompts at each organization may be different. The process takes three to five minutes to complete.
Arrive at the client's home to begin the shift. Prior to starting, use the client's landline phone to dial the phone number provided by the organization.
An automated voice will prompt for the last four digits of the employee's social security number on the landline keypad. If the organization offers multiple languages, select the preferred language prior to entering social security digits.
When prompted enter the four-digit PIN provided by the organization
When prompted enter month and day of birth (i.e., January 01 - enter 01 01)
When prompted press 1 for hourly services
The system will read the name(s) of client associated with the landline phone number. Press the number on the keypad associated with the client (i.e., press 1 for John Smith).
Press 1 for real time. The options will be to press 1 for hourly service or 2 for historical entries.
Press the appropriate number to confirm the service code (i.e., respite)
If more than one service code, the system will read all service codes available (i.e., press 1 for respite, press 2 for attendant care)
The system will read how many hours are left on the current authorization. To continue, press 1. Otherwise, press 2 to end the call.
This is a configurable setting that is not used by all organizations
Move on to next step if no balance announced
Select clock in EVV Location
If the user is calling from the associated EVV phone number, this step will not be presented as the EVV location will be automatically selected.
If this is required by the organization, a selection must be made ("none" will not be an option). The system will provide numbered options for EVV locations associated with the client.
If this is not required by the organization, "none" will be an available option.
Press 1 to save the entry and clock in
Real-Time Phone EVV Clock Out
The process for clocking out will be similar to the process for clocking in. Please note that questions or voice prompts at each organization may vary. The process takes three to five minutes to complete.
At the end of the shift, use the client's landline phone to dial the phone number provided by the organization.
An automated voice will prompt for the last four digits of the employee's social security number on the landline keypad. If the organization offers multiple languages, select the preferred language prior to entering social security digits.
When prompted enter the four-digit PIN provided by the organization
The system will alert that there is an open punch. When prompted press 1 to confirm closing the punch.
Select clock out EVV Location
If the user is calling from the associated EVV phone number, this step will not be presented as the EVV location will be automatically selected.
If this is required by the organization, a selection must be made ("none" will not be an option). The system will provide numbered options for EVV locations associated with the client.
If this is not required by the organization, "none" will be an available option.
Press 2 to disconnect (clock out has now occurred), or if needed, press 1 to start a new shift (i.e., A real-time clock out was just completed, but a historical punch also needs to be entered. Stay on the line and complete both.).
Historical Phone EVV
Historical phone EVV allows users to enter time after the shift has already happened. Because the shift is in the past, users clock in and out during the same call. Historical phone EVV requires that the client or authorized client representative verify the historical time entry.
