Hospice Tools is a comprehensive Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Billing software suite designed specifically for independent hospice and palliative care agencies. The platform is built from the ground up by hospice professionals to simplify clinical documentation, streamline workflows, and ensure regulatory compliance.
Key Components:
- eDocs EMR: The core clinical charting and patient management tool. It features smart flexible forms, in-doc patient history, and real-time updates across all devices. It is praised for its intuitive, user-friendly interface which allows clinicians to spend less time charting.
- TimeKeeper: An integrated timesheet and workforce management platform that tracks time, mileage, and payroll. It automatically integrates clinical visits from eDocs to auto-build timesheets, which aids in compliance and reduces errors.
- eBilling: A revenue cycle management (RCM) tool that delivers fast and accurate billing for all payers, including Medicaid room & board. It provides real-time Medicare claim status and built-in appeals tracking.
Main Value Proposition:
- Automatic Compliance: Features like 'Audit Mode,' 'Auto-Build,' 'Mentor Mode,' and 'HIS Dashboard' help agencies maintain compliance with regulatory mandates like the Hospice Item Set (HIS) and protect against audits and fraud. The software has been awarded the CHAP Verified seal.
- Mobile and Accessible: Offers real-mobile apps for iOS and Android, enabling point-of-care charting from virtually anywhere on any device with web access.
- Affordable & Flexible Pricing: Utilizes a flat per-user, per-month pricing model, which is often more cost-effective for small and midsize agencies compared to census-based pricing models.
Target Users: Hospice Nurses, Social Workers, Chaplains, Administrators, Billing/RCM Staff, and Volunteer Coordinators at independent hospice and palliative care agencies.
