Education | Sandata Webinars
The state has initiated its 'early adopter' process, which will run from now until the end of the year.
Providers are required to register with the state. Agencies do not need to enter into HIPAA-mandated Business Associate Agreements (BAAs) with Sandata before connecting to the EVV reporting system.
A business associate contract is not required with persons or organizations whose functions, activities, or services do not involve the use or disclosure of [PHI], and where any access to [PHI] by such persons would be incidental, if at all.

FAQ | EOHHS/MassHealth Checklist
EOHHS/MassHealth has contracted Sandata to handle electronic visit verification (EVV) activities. This contract includes provisions for data management and confidentiality, along with a business associate agreement.
Since Sandata is acting on behalf of EOHHS, providers do not need to establish any additional data-sharing or privacy agreements with Sandata.
