Who we empower every day
By Role
- Agency Owners — Use wage data to develop competitive compensation plans and retain caregivers.
By Persona
- Supervisors — Ensure staffing levels and pay rates align with market and skill levels.
- Billers/Payroll — Integrate wage tracking with hours worked (captured via EVV) and ensure accurate payroll.
- Schedulers — Build shifts considering pay rates, incentives and skills to optimise staff utilisation.
- Caregivers — Understand pay benchmarks, how their role and responsibilities impact pay, and how incentive programs work.
- On-Call/Backup Coordinators — Manage relief coverage with awareness of pay differentials, incentive eligibility.
Compensation is a key factor in recruiting & retaining caregivers. When your operational system links hours worked (EVV-captured) with pay, incentives and scheduling, you improve transparency, fairness and retention.
