Choosing a Home Health Software that Works for Your Agency

 

Is it mobile responsive? Will I be able to collect caregiver and patient signatures electronically? Can I complete visit notes on or offline? Does it have EVV?  How many licenses do I need? Does it handle skilled care? Will it handle non-skilled homecare? How many features does it have? How expensive is it going to be? Can it handle multiple business lines? Does it have Telephony? Will it work for Private Duty? Can I use it for Hospice? Is the support free? What is the onboarding process? Do I have to sign a contract? Can it bill for all payers? Is it easy to learn? Is it easy to use for caregivers? Will it work for Home Health Aide visits?

These are just SOME of the questions you might be thinking about as you begin your search for the best Home Health Software for your agency. Maybe your agency has just opened, or you could be established with multiple branches...in either case, some of your core questions are still the same.

Home Health Software for MBI

 

Is Your Home Health Care Software Ready?

 

Will your Medicare Claims continue to pay after January 1, 2020? Are you ready for the BIG Change? No, we are not talking about PDGM, but that is coming, too.

In 2018, Medicare began the process of issuing a Medicare Beneficiary Identifier to all eligible participants. Home Health and Hospice Providers should be using this identifier in place of the HICN or Social Security Number for billing purposes at this time.  All Claims submitted on or after January 1, 2020 should have the MBI, even for dates of service prior to the effective date.
