Home Care Software from Alora

Electronic Visit Verification:

EVV is becoming a requirement in many states – and Alora has it fully integrated into its system. Alora EVV simplifies the workflow for the caregivers as well as the agency administrators.

Alora’s electronic visit verification solution empowers caregivers with a software tool to check their schedules, capture signatures, and complete plan of care based visit notes.

In addition to facilitating compliance and caregiver accountability, Alora EVV brings efficiency for the agency because the EVV information captured flows to billing and payroll, eliminating manual entries.

Alora EVV includes “live monitoring” capability – a powerful tool that provides you up-to-the-minute visibility on home visits that are in progress as well as delays and no-shows.

You will know when a caregiver does not show up and you can proactively take the necessary steps to deal with the situation before it is too late.

Home Care Scheduling Software:

Alora’s software solution allows you to enter and view schedules from the angle of a patient, caregiver or agency as a whole.

Our software also alerts you to potential conflicts or issues with compliance (such as prior authorizations or frequency of visits). And you can view the schedule the way you prefer – by month, week, day, or certification period – and you can also manage visits in “batch entry” rows and columns format.

Alora lets you send and receive faxes with a single click, without the need for a machine. Our fax confirmation log keeps a permanent history of all the faxes sent as well as their status. Alora’s fully integrated Home Health faxing can literally save your agency hours of time daily. Click here to watch Home Health Faxing Video

Onscreen, you can review caregivers’ completed documents – to approve or return them for correction.

Stay in contact with all staff, including caregivers in the field, with HIPAA-compliant email (which features built-in mobile texting to let them know email is waiting for them). Internal email keeps your agency’s people connected with each other.

It’s your single-view look at what’s in progress – and what still needs to be done. Which plan of care is due? Which orders have yet to be sent? What were the most recent assessments? We display it all in one place, and you get to determine the level of information each agency staff can access.

We’ve made it easier to comply with payers’ requirements for prior authorization. Alora homecare software alerts you to authorization information that’s missing or attempts to exceed limits – whether the authorizations are recurring or for a set period of time. During billing, authorization codes automatically flow into claims.

Alora Homecare Software can automatically calculate the travel time and mileage, utilizing a mapping service, for your caregiver’s travel from one patient visit to the next.  If your agency tracks travel time or mileage, this tool can save you a lot of time and provide peace of mind.

This tool can be customized to not to calculate travel time if the time gap between two visits exceeds the limit set by you.

Communication Log allows your agency to document any type of communication that you would like to keep a record of.  Communication Logs are available for clients as well as for staff.  You can run reports filtered by communication type.

Alora home health software also lets you track patient referrals … create and maintain logs for the patient and caregiver communication as well as patient hospitalization … generate paperless records (scanned document storage) for patients, caregivers, and office … handle multiple offices in one system … track caregiver absences and unassigned visits… and more.

Did your caregivers actually do what was required in the client’s plan of care? You won’t have to wonder – Alora Software for Homecare generates client-specific visit notes that are derived from the plan of care.

In addition to assessments, care plans, and visit notes, Alora comes with many other documents including missed visit notes, supervisory visit notes, and verbal orders.

Do your staff complete any custom paper documents that were created by your agency?
