Try as you may, it seems like any and all information is gatekept — only shared if you’ve got the secret password. If you’re anything like me, that just isn’t going to cut it. I put on my investigative journalism cap and went on a deep dive. First, using the data from our software selection platform, I shortlisted the best home health software: * **Best Overall:** [Axxess](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-health-software/axxess/) * **Best for Dashboards and Reporting:** [AxisCare](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-health-software/axiscare/) * **Best for Integrations:** [MatrixCare](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-health-software/matrixcare/) * **Best for Schedule Management:** [KanTime](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-health-software/kantime/) * **Best for Clinical Management:** [AlayaCare](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-health-software/alayacare/) With that list in hand, I reached out to home care software vendors and users, watched hours of demo and training videos, and scoured Reddit and software review sites. The result? An inside scoop on standout features, user experience and not-so-standout elements. ## Why You Can Trust Us Our research team spent hundreds of hours scouring the home health software market so we can give you the best recommendations possible.

[Read Full Review](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-care-software/axiscare/) [Visit Site](https://axiscare.com/) AxisCare is a strong fit if you want home care software that’s both feature-rich and easy for staff to adopt. It’s built for agencies that need to manage scheduling, caregiver compliance, billing and communication in one place, without drowning in admin work. From the get-go, it offers incredibly robust customization options, so you can create custom forms to populate fields in patient profiles without any programming. Additionally, I liked how the pre-set geofencing rules and custom ADLs promote accountability for clocking in and out via the mobile app. I was happy to see that the real-time scheduling view was as popular with users as it was with me. I loved the attribute matching score – something that keeps both clients and caregivers happy – with the nice bonus of filters, synced date and color-coded statuses so you can see and fill open slots without scheduling conflicts. Mobile accessibility is a huge selling point with home health software, however, a native app isn’t always the priority. I was impressed by the importance AxisCare places on its app, both in terms of capability and UX. It was obvious they had caregiver insights when they put in features like multiple account switching and visit creation. On the billing and claims side of things, I thought it was wise that AxisCare didn’t spread themselves too thin and instead offered native integration with Waystar and Change Healthcare to manage clearinghouse operations. User reviews mentioned lags and a bit of a learning curve when starting, but were also quick to praise the customer support team for quick, helpful responses. The cost was another complaint for smaller agencies. Overall, I’d say AxisCare makes for a great solution for agencies that require extensive customizations with support assistance, built-in EVV or multi-location management and don’t mind the price tag. [Read Full Review](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-care-software/axiscare/) [Visit Site](https://axiscare.com/) * **Smarter Caregiver Scheduling:** AxisCare scored a perfect 100 for schedule management in our analysis, thanks to its AI-powered matching that pairs caregivers and clients based on past visits, skills, distance, languages, allergies and more. Use the color-coded weekly calendar to filter by caregiver, client or date and quickly find specific visits. * **Eligibility Verification:** You can easily run patient eligibility checks and save the results right in their billing profile. Get a set number of free checks per month and pay for extras if you need them. * **Billing and Coding:** Make sure you’re billing clients correctly by verifying authorized services with ICD-10 codes. You can enter them manually or import them into the system, then handle billing and caregiver payments through [QuickBooks](https://www.selecthub.com/p/accounting-software/quickbooks-online/) and USPS. With native integrations like Change Healthcare or [Waystar](https://www.selecthub.com/p/medical-billing-software/waystar/), you can automate ERA remittances and track claims without any hassle. * **Custom Forms:** The platform lets you tailor your setup by creating and sharing smart intake forms, assessments and care plans from default templates, then instantly transfer responses into patient profiles. For example, you can set up an emergency preparedness response plan using the custom form creator and save each patient’s responses directly to their profile. * **Caregiver Mobile App:** Scoring 100 in our analysis, AxisCare’s mobile app includes geofencing-enabled clock-ins, GPS navigation, time tracking, two-way chat, documentation tools, notes and eSignatures. Caregivers can create visits right from the app — these update instantly on the calendar and send push notifications as reminders.

Our analysts scored the solution highly for point of care management, PDGM, reporting and dashboards, and security capabilities. Users appreciate its strong functionality, live updates and customer support, but think the limited customization options and upgrade costs are significant downsides.

[Read Full Review](https://www.selecthub.com/p/home-care-software/alayacare/) [Visit Site](https://www.alayacare.com/) AlayaCare appears to be most suitable for mid-sized to large home care agencies due to its scalability and comprehensive feature set. Smaller agencies might find the system to be too complex or expensive for their needs, while larger agencies will appreciate the ability to manage multiple branches, complex scheduling needs, and a large volume of clients and caregivers. The robust reporting and analytics capabilities are particularly beneficial for agencies looking to gain insights into their operations and improve efficiency. One area where AlayaCare seems to shine is its scheduling and routing functionality. Users frequently praise the system's ability to optimize routes, reducing travel time and costs for caregivers. The drag-and-drop interface and real-time visibility into caregiver availability make scheduling a breeze. However, some users have noted that the initial setup and configuration of the scheduling system can be time-consuming and may require assistance from AlayaCare's support team. Compared to competitors like AxisCare and Homecare Homebase, AlayaCare is often seen as a more modern and user-friendly platform. The mobile app for caregivers receives positive feedback for its ease of use and intuitive interface. AlayaCare also offers a wider range of features, including telehealth capabilities, family portals, and business intelligence tools. However, this broader feature set can also make AlayaCare more expensive than some of its competitors. While AlayaCare receives generally positive feedback, there are some areas where users would like to see improvements. The billing and payroll modules, while functional, are sometimes described as being less intuitive than other parts of the system. Additionally, some users have expressed a desire for more customization options and third-party integrations.

Notify staff of delayed or missed appointments for quick problem resolution. * **Clinical Documentation:** Convert forms and reports into digital formats allowing care providers to chart from the point of care on any internet-accessible device. Track user changes and clinical notes with version controls. Upload data quicker with menu-driven and predictive text functionality. * **Custom Dashboards:** Monitor KPIs, reports and metrics with live updates. Visualize key reports, customize widgets and configure personalized dashboards based on user roles. * **Scheduling:** Assign and manage caregiver visits with drag and drop interfaces.

The analyst scores, which determine the top products 2. My personal research into each product to supplement our analyst data **How the Analyst Score Works** Our team of analysts conducted in-depth research of the home health software market using primary and secondary sources. This included SelectHub Analyst Briefings, direct communication with vendors, and reviewing materials such as user reviews, product brochures, specification sheets, case studies, user manuals and technical documentation. Our platform’s Scoring Engine processed all the research to compute the analyst score. The score is based on how comprehensive each product’s feature-set is and how much is available out of the box vs. through extra modules, integrations and other means. For home health software, our analysts scored the following feature groups: * Ancillary Platform Functions * Billing and Claims * Caregiver Management * Clinical Management * Dashboards and Reporting * Mobile Capabilities * Patient-Driven Groupings Model (PDGM) * Predictive Analytics * Referral and Intake Management * Schedule Management They also scored these technical components: * Compliance * Integrations and Extensibility * Platform Security | **Level of Support** | **Score** | **Description** | | ----------------------------------- | --------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | Fully Supported Out of the Box | 100 | This feature is comprehensively supported out of the box with industry-leading capabilities and is immediately available after installation, without needing any additional modules, integrations, or custom development. | | Moderately Supported Out of the Box | 85 | This feature is moderately supported out of the box and is immediately available after installation, without needing any additional modules, integrations, or custom development. | | Supported with Workarounds | 70 | This feature is not directly available in the software but can be accomplished using other built-in features or any other workarounds, without any additional cost. | | Supported with Additional Modules | 60 | This feature is available through additional modules or products from the vendor at an additional cost. | | Supported with Partner Integrations | 50 | This feature is available through additional integrations, plugins, or marketplace applications from a third-party vendor at an additional cost. | | Supported with Custom Development | 25 | This feature is not built in, and cannot be added by purchasing additional modules or integrations, but can be custom developed using the APIs, libraries, extensions, and development framework supported by the software, with or without any additional cost. | | Not Supported | 0 | This feature is not supported. | **My Research** Before getting into the behemoth that is home health care software, I set out the criteria I would use to evaluate the software. Although the perfect solution looks different to everyone, there are a few essential tenets. Here’s what I was looking for: ![SelectHub Evaluation Criteria for Home Health Software]() * **Ease of Use:** I wanted to choose user-friendly and intuitive solutions, without too much of a learning curve, especially for staff with different levels of technical proficiency. * **Comprehensive Feature Set:** Assuming home health agencies are looking for an all-in-one solution, I looked for systems with basic features like patient intake, scheduling, documentation, billing and reporting. * **Integration Capabilities:** It’s not uncommon for agencies to have more than one solution. At a basic level, I thought the best systems should integrate with common healthcare solutions like [EHR](https://www.selecthub.com/c/ehr-software/), [EVV](https://www.selecthub.com/c/evv-software/) and [pharmacy software](https://www.selecthub.com/c/pharmacy-software/) and have API access for custom integrations. * **Scalability:** As patients increase and agencies possibly evolve into multi-site organizations, the software should grow alongside them. I didn’t want agencies to have to scrap their old solution if expansion was on the horizon. * **Accessibility:** On-site visits mean mobile and offline accessibility are paramount for caregivers to communicate with back-office staff and view up-to-date patient records. All the solutions on this list offer native iOS and Android apps, an offline mode and mobile document access. * **Compliance and Security:** Last (but certainly not least), I narrowed down solutions that were fully HIPAA compliant and offered a secure interchange of health information data across systems and devices. All systems provide an audit trail and role-based access.

They may include: * **Home health agencies:** Agencies that directly provide in-home care services to patients, such as wound care, medication management and personal care assistance can streamline their operations, improve patient care coordination and enhance financial management with a home health platform. * **Hospice care providers:** Home health software can improve the comfort and care provided to terminally ill patients by offering a central platform to manage patient needs, track medications and communicate effectively with families. * **Private duty care agencies:** For agencies that provide non-medical care services like companionship, light housekeeping and meal prep, home health software streamlines scheduling, billing and payroll for their caregivers. * **Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs):** While primarily focused on inpatient care, home health software can provide continuity of care and aid patients when they are transitioning back home. [How much does home health software cost?](#group%5F146) The cost of home health software varies based on the vendor and your agency size. Our analysts found that many vendors use a per user, per month pricing model. According to user reviews, vendors may charge an implementation fee and additional fees for advanced features. [What are some risks or challenges associated with home health software?](#group%5F864) Investing in home health software can feel like putting all your eggs in one basket. Safety-proof your basket by being aware of the following risks and challenges: * **Security Breaches:** Keep your data (and your patients’ data) safe with role-based access, encrypted data transfers, two-factor authentication, single-sign-ons and security applications. * **System Issues:** Glitches, lags or a loss of network connectivity from your vendor can make life difficult for your users. Check users reviews and whether there’s an offline mode before you make a purchase. * **Lack of Compliance:** Failure to secure health exchange data or implement a HIPAA-compliant system can open the door to fines, loss of accreditation and even closure. Ensure systems are HiTrust verified and HIPAA compliant (at the very least).
