ANCOR EVV State Tracker Initial Survey - Partners

ANCOR is committed to sharing information about the impact of Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) as it is implemented across the states.

To this end, we need your help to gather feedback and insight on the current status of EVV Implementation in your state by completing the following survey. The survey consists of twenty-three primarily multiple-choice questions and should take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete.

The information you share will be compiled and shared on our soon to be released EVV Tracker microsite. With this in mind, please be sure to note any portion of your response that should not be shared publicly.  

Thanks in advance for your help - we greatly appreciate it!
