How it works

How Compliance Tracking Works

Home health compliance isn't a one-time project — licenses expire, credentials rotate, and state surveyors show up unannounced. This is how the platform keeps you audit-ready at all times.

Licenses & credentials Expiration alerts Audit readiness score
What the platform tracks
  • State agency licenses & renewal dates
  • Staff credentials (CPR, TB tests, HHA certifications)
  • In-service training hours & background checks
  • Documents & certificates — organized for surveyors
  • Live audit readiness score per state

Know your gaps before a state surveyor does.

Getting started takes less than a week.

Roster upload

Start by uploading your staff roster — a spreadsheet with names, roles, start dates, and any existing credential records you already track. The platform imports contact information, employment history, and current credential data so you're not re-entering information you already have.

If your records are scattered across binders and email inboxes, you can start with partial data and fill gaps as you go. The audit readiness score immediately shows you what's missing.

License entry

Enter your agency's state license information — license number, issue date, expiration date, and any supporting documents. Upload the license certificate directly into the platform so it's stored alongside your compliance data.

If you're in multiple states, enter each license separately. The platform applies the right requirements for each state automatically once you've added the license.

Most agencies are fully set up within one week — often faster if records are already organized.

We already know what each state requires. You don't have to research it yourself.

50 states, normalized

Every state has different home health licensing requirements, different credential standards for staff, different inspection criteria, and different renewal timelines. These rules are built into the platform — when you designate a state, the right requirements are applied to your agency and staff automatically.

What gets mapped

  • Agency license renewal frequency and renewal notice windows
  • Required staff credentials by role (HHA, CNA, PCA, RN supervisor)
  • In-service training hour requirements per year
  • Background check recurrence and documentation requirements
  • TB test and health screening timelines
  • CPR certification renewal periods

When regulations change

State regulations change — training hour minimums increase, background check requirements tighten, new credential types are added. We track regulatory updates and update the requirement mappings so the platform reflects current rules, not last year's rules.

Agencies operating in multiple states see consolidated guidance on what changed and which staff members are affected.

Everything in one place — not one binder per surveyor category.

Agency licenses

All state licenses in one view with status (active, expiring soon, expired), expiration dates, renewal due dates, and links to uploaded documents. If you operate in multiple states, you see all licenses side by side — not in separate spreadsheets.

Staff credentials

Per-caregiver view showing every required credential for their role, current status, and expiration date. The bulk view shows you across your whole team: "4 staff have CPR expiring this month" or "2 CNAs are missing TB test documentation."

  • CPR certification status and expiration
  • TB test / health screening dates
  • Background check dates and recurrence status
  • In-service training hours completed vs. required
  • HHA, CNA, and role-specific certifications

Document storage

Upload and organize licenses, certificates, inspection reports, and training records. Everything a state surveyor would ask for lives in one place — not in email attachments, file cabinets, or a shared drive that only one person can navigate. Documents are linked to the specific credential or license they support.

Alerts go out before anything lapses — not after.

1

Platform monitors expiration dates continuously

Once credentials and licenses are entered, the platform calculates days-to-expiration for every item. No manual tracking required — expiration dates are always current.

2

Alert window triggers

Alerts fire at configurable lead times — typically 60, 30, and 7 days before expiration. Different credential types can have different lead times based on how long renewal takes. A state license renewal that requires paperwork gets more lead time than a CPR recertification that takes an afternoon.

3

Who gets notified

Alerts go to coordinators and administrators — the people responsible for making sure renewals happen. Optionally, alerts can also go directly to the staff member, so they know their CPR is expiring and can schedule recertification without coordinator follow-up.

4

Dashboard reflects real-time status

As credentials approach expiration, the dashboard status updates: Active → Expiring Soon → Expired. Coordinators see the same picture in their dashboard that the alerts describe, so nothing is missed between notifications.

5

Mark as renewed — update the record

When a credential is renewed, coordinators upload the new certificate and update the expiration date. The record closes the alert cycle and the next expiration window begins. Document history is preserved so you can show renewal continuity if a surveyor asks.

A live percentage score. Know exactly where you stand before a surveyor does.

What the score measures

The audit readiness score is a percentage that reflects how close your agency is to full compliance for a given state. It accounts for:

  • Whether the agency license is current and not expiring imminently
  • The percentage of staff with complete, current credentials for their role
  • Whether required documents are uploaded and linked to the correct records
  • Training hour completion relative to state requirements
  • Background check currency across all staff

A 100% score means: if a state surveyor walked in today, every credential they would ask for is current, documented, and findable in under two minutes.

How to use it

The score gives you a daily signal — not a quarterly surprise. Clicking into any gap shows you exactly what's missing or expiring:

  • "Maria Johnson — CPR expired Feb 28"
  • "Juan Rivera — missing 4 in-service training hours"
  • "Florida license renews in 22 days — renewal document not yet uploaded"

Each gap item includes a suggested action. Coordinators work from the gap list until the score reaches 100%. The score updates in real time as records are updated.

Adding a new state of operation is a configuration step, not a compliance research project.

Adding a state

When your agency expands to a new state, you enter the new state license and the platform applies that state's requirement set automatically. Staff credential requirements that differ from your existing states appear as new compliance gaps in the dashboard — so you can see exactly what your current staff are missing for the new state before you start operating there.

Unified multi-state dashboard

Each state has its own compliance score and license record. The multi-state dashboard view shows all your states side by side — so if Florida is at 98% and you just opened in Georgia at 71%, you can see that gap immediately and work the Georgia action list to close it. You don't need separate spreadsheets for separate states.

Staff operating across states

Some staff members work across state lines. The platform can track state-specific credential requirements per staff member when applicable — particularly relevant for agencies operating in contiguous markets where caregivers cross state borders.

Multi-state tracking is available on Growth and Scale plans.

New hires start a compliance checklist — not a filing cabinet.

When you add a new staff member, the platform generates their required credential checklist based on their role and the states they'll work in. Coordinators see exactly what needs to be collected before the hire is fully compliant.

  • Role-specific credential checklist generated on hire
  • Document upload prompts for each required item
  • Probationary compliance status until all items are complete
  • Alert if a new hire's initial credentials expire before they're renewed

When a surveyor walks in, you're ready — not scrambling.

State surveyors can arrive with little or no advance notice. The platform organizes every document they would ask for in advance:

  • Agency license and renewal history
  • Staff credential records with document uploads
  • Training hour logs per staff member
  • Background check dates and results documentation
  • TB test and health screening records

Instead of spending two hours assembling a binder, you access the document library and pull what the surveyor is asking for in seconds.
