On the Road Again: The AAMVA EVVE Pilot Project Rose Trasatti NAPHSIS Project Manager June 7, 2005

What is EVVE? Electronic Verification of Vital Events Remote message-based queries for vital records Authorized users have a single interface to generate a verification query to any participating jurisdiction throughout the country

What is EVVE? NAPHSIS national clearinghouse (hub) Standard Internet-based XML Vital Event Transaction (VET) Knowledge database for jurisdiction rules and data availability/mapping Transaction log of exchanges of requests and responses between users and the jurisdictions via the hub Management and billing reports

Benefits of EVVE Protects against potential fraudulent activities Improves customer service Provides increased response rate to queries Facilitates rapid access to accurate and verifiable vital record data Supports the future of business within the vital records offices Integrates easily with current legacy systems

EVVE Concerns Confidentiality  Responses are either Match/No Match  Eliminates browsing Security  Provides a secure mechanism for the communication between agencies and the vital records offices  Connectivity is via VPN or SSL with authentication  Controls access to authorized users Pricing  Post pilot pricing structure needs to be established
