What Are Your Choices in Aging Life or GCM Client Software?

June 4, 2022

 

 

What are the Four Geriatric Care Management Databases?

 

There are only four significant aging life or GCM Software Choices ?  So the options for client software are slim. Jewel Code  and  My Junna  are two choices. Care Tree    I  Health Home  are two more options. Geriatric care managers and  ALCA managers who

have home care staffing themselves are fans of  Clear Care, which offers staffing if you also have private duty home care but is not really as user-friendly for care management needs with limited space to document & no care planning at all.

Which GCM Database Should you Choose – See my Newest Webinar?             

If you are a geriatric or aging life care manager or a private duty home care agency doing geriatric care management start up or still on paper- which GCM software choice should you use and why. Find what you need in your client database and check out each product to see if it has what you want. Join me for my newest free webinar on August 25, when  I will show zoom interview with all 4  four CEO’s asking them what are the features and benefits of their software and why their product stands out from their competition.

 

Here is a list of what a care management database should do for you- see what the CEO’s of the 4 GCM Software Products say they do

 

  • Track all client information                 
  • Create and update a care plan
  • Create a client activity log

10 Reasons to Ditch Paper and Reap the Advantages of a Database

May 31, 2022

 


GCM ‘s Using Paper Bad Business Decision

What are the advantages of a database for care managers?Some care managers still function on paper instead of using a care management database. That is a bad business decision. A paper record is easily exposed, letting anyone see it, transcribe details, make a copy or even scan or fax the information to a third party. In contrast, electronic records 0r a database can be protected with robust encryption methods to keep crucial patient information secure from prying eyes. Keeping your patients’ records secure involves much more than controlling access to confidential information. You also need to make sure that the data will be available under worst-case scenarios.

 

The Advantages of a database- easy to give clients gold standard service to make more money.

The advantage of a database to care managers, is you retain clients by arming your care management staff with the most user-friendly fully loaded client database. This makes their gold standard concierge care so much easier to deliver. This gives your business a more profitable bottom line in running your business. So spending money on a client database makes you more money and saves you time while making that money.

What are the advantages of a database for care managers?

1. Using a database rather than paper will increase your revenue by 30%. You enter case notes and billing in real-time rather than hours later when you get back to the office when you forget the exact billing time.

2. Improves the quality of care… for your client by being able to quickly document and used the saved time for working with your client.

3. Speed and Efficiency. ..when a team member needs to share client information with other team members, it should be easy and a database makes this sharing fast

4. Improves communication… between you as a care manager and other healthcare professionals you work with within the community

5. Saves time and money… getting rid of the extra work and time of double-entry,

6. Legibility and Accuracy. .. enhancing the readability, availability, and easy accessibility of information

7. Comply with courts …if your notes are requested by the courts they are readable and organized  as geriatric care managers work with many dysfunctional families where there is often  fiscal or physical abuse  ending in the courtroom

8. Protect the environment … by not generating tons of paper which is critical now with climate change

9. More Space…  Computerizing a paper system can create additional space, as there is no longer a need to store a large volume of paper records or files. …

10. Reduces cost… by not paying for storage space to keep 7 years of client information in written form for IRS requirements
