CareTime

CareTime is a highly focused, fiercely affordable, and incredibly intuitive software platform that explicitly targets the "Non-Medical Home Care and Private Duty" sector. While HCHB and WellSky are built for complex clinical nursing (administering IVs, wound care), CareTime is built for agencies that provide personal care (bathing, meal prep, companionship) to seniors, operating under totally different regulatory and billing models (Medicaid/Private Pay). The absolute core differentiator of CareTime is its "Frictionless EVV (Electronic Visit Verification) and Scheduling." By federal law, Medicaid requires agencies to electronically prove that a caregiver was actually at the patient's house. CareTime provides a blisteringly simple mobile app (or a dial-in telephony system for caregivers without smartphones) that uses GPS to clock the caregiver in and out of the exact geographical boundary of the patient's home. Furthermore, it handles the chaotic, high-volume scheduling of hundreds of part-time caregivers flawlessly, including shift-swapping and open-shift broadcasting. Because of its transparent pricing and extreme ease of use for non-technical caregivers, it is massively popular among independent franchise owners and startup home care agencies.
