The Problem Statement
Amid rapid expansion across multiple states, Heaven Sent Home Care grappled with distinctive challenges tailored to the intricacies of their compassionate services. First on the list was the imperative need for process standardization, a critical endeavor to ensure uniform, high-quality care delivery despite the geographical nuances that expansion brought. The absence of GPS-enabled Electronic Visit Verification (EVV) in their previous software posed another significant hurdle, impacting the accurate confirmation of caregiver presence. Navigating multiple states further introduced a complex web of compliance requirements, spanning from mandatory TB testing to insurance renewals.
