CellTrak™ solves the 4 major problems facing up to 90% of the home healthcare agencies in Real-Time.
Visit Compliance - 90% of Home Healthcare agencies track employee VISIT COMPLIANCE by the employee subjectively recording their attendance.

Data Collection and error Reporting (EMR) – 90% of Home Healthcare Nurses, Aides and Therapist record their visit attendance, document patient records and visit notes by pen and paper. With an average full time employee producing 25 visits records a week, a mountain of data has to be transcribed and entered into scheduling, billing and payroll systems manually. Resulting in reduced patient care time, increased labor and office expenses, data errors and inaccurate or delayed billing.

Mileage & Time Reimbursements – 90% of Home Healthcare Nurses, Aides and Therapist are expected to honestly report their mileage and time traveled per visit. Resulting in the natural rounding of miles and time traveled per visit and the occasional padding.

Scheduling Communication – 90% of Home Healthcare Agencies communicate schedules to their staff via paper, phone or pager. Resulting in missed or duplicated paperwork, lost patient revenue, and potentially poor service.
