Hospice Tools Features
CD Codes Library
It allows users to quickly search by disease name or ICD code, enabling accurate documentation. Clinicians can efficiently add multiple codes to a patient’s face sheet, ensuring compliance, reducing errors, and streamlining the charting process.
Auto-Calculate Cert Periods
The software automatically determines patient certification dates for new admissions, transfers, or previous benefit periods. This feature reduces manual calculations, ensures accurate compliance with hospice regulations, and helps staff maintain timely documentation for care planning and billing purposes.
Patient Contact And Location
This feature stores comprehensive patient and caregiver addresses, allowing staff to update locations easily. The system automatically syncs patient location with eBilling, optimizing revenue capture and accurately calculating pass-through rates for Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs), enhancing billing efficiency.
Veterans Checklist Form
This form enables hospice staff to systematically track and address the specific needs of veteran patients. By ensuring compliance with veteran-related care requirements, it helps improve patient satisfaction and can contribute to generating increased veteran referrals for the agency.
Mentor Mode
It provides automatic document compliance for non-credentialed staff, including new hires, interns, and doctors. It guides users through required documentation during onboarding and clinical review. This ensures regulatory adherence, reduces errors, and supports consistent, accurate patient records across the organization.

“easy system learning”
Pros
This hospice tool is very easy for me to navigate and pick up largely because colleagues have taken the time to walk me through the system and teach me how it works.
Cons
From using the hospice tool regularly I feel the site could grow by adding more features. I also think it would improve a lot by taking in more suggestions from people like me who work with it every day.

“Quick access to patient information”
Pros
The interface is beautifully simple and puts all the patient information right at my fingertips exactly when I need it. Whether I'm looking up patients or staff details I can find what I'm after without any hassle or extra clicks. It keeps everything flowing smoothly during a busy day.
Cons
Personally I wish there were a way to search for patients by a caregiver's name. I've run into situations where I only knew who the caregiver was and finding the correct patient record quickly became harder than it needed to be.

“Most user-friendly tool”
Pros
Over the years I've used four different EMRs in various hospice roles and I can honestly say this is by far the most user-friendly option I've worked with it's the easiest to navigate thoughtfully designed for the tasks I handle and far less likely to make me repeat work or submit something wrong that later needs fixing. The interface is easy and simple offering nearly every feature I could ask for and I estimate it frees up roughly 20 hours of my time each month so I can focus on more meaningful responsibilities.
Cons
While the volunteer module is largely great but I've noticed a few minor areas that could be tightened up to improve the experience. To my knowledge this EMR is the only one that actually includes a built-in volunteer interface and that integration makes it easy for volunteers across different ages and comfort levels with technology to jump in and use it without much hand-holding.
