Vice President Patient Care Services Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Mobile and Easy to use" February 18, 2021 5.0 Overall we have a very positive experience. customer service is responsive and friendly. Our account rep is very accessible. Matrixcare has regular webinars about upcoming software changes, upgrades, planned features as well as industry changes, new laws, regulations and how the system is aware of them and incorporating them. They really understand what home health care needs, how it is constantly changing and can be state specific as well. They make sure they are on top of industry needs. Pros The clinical staff have the whole patient record at their fingertips and with a web based program, the managers and office staff can work remotely from anywhere. New staff learn the software quickly. The checks and balances in the system help us meet all the home health care regulations and maintain compliance with physician orders. Upgrades are deployed automatically and we do not have to maintain a server. We can fax directly out of the system and receive faxes directly into the medical record for efficiency. Cons The company continues to make developments and add new features and capabilities. It helps us keep up with industry changes. A more efficient process to change payers and convert medications and care plans to the new chart would be ideal.

Consulting Business Analyst Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MatrixCare is good but company is too big and they are less responsive to customers" January 22, 2021 3.0 Currently they have helped with how we communicate and work with our Caregivers during the Covid-19 pandemic. Pros The ability to have scheduling, billing, and payroll all in one system. Integration into our HR system works well. It's relatively easy to use and teach new employees. Cons Regulatory payroll rules for certain states. The software doesn't work well for a large Enterprise organization like ours. Enhancements are very difficult to get done and general responsiveness to our needs has diminished since the acquisition by Resmed.

It met most of our needs back then. Switched from [AppointMate](https://www.capterra.com/p/117161/AppointMate/) Back in 2013 when we converted, Appointmate couldn't carry overtime.

CEO Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My review of an awesome product" January 22, 2021 5.0 Exceptional Pros the ease of use for front line users the responsiveness of Matrixcare to changing environment of regulations Cons when a fix needs to move to tier 2 you, there is no follow up . the personal service that makes matrixcare so amazing is gone, your ticket closes and you have no idea of outcome or if anything was done Alternatives considered [iKnowMed](https://www.capterra.com/p/213436/iKnowMed/) Reason for choosing MatrixCare Private Duty cost, ease of use , positive reviews by users Review Source TF Tammy F. Owner VP Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Matrix Care Private Duty " March 3, 2025 4.0 Overall a positive experience. Training was top notch and and customer service was great. Pros Customer Service was great. I liked that when we called in, we were able to speak to someone. Cons At the time that we used MatrixCare - they were not ready for state mandated EVV Review Source LG Lynn G. Division Controller Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "MatrixCare Home Health & Hospice Review" January 23, 2021 3.0 We have seen a significant reduction in turnover as well as a reduction in direct cost per visit, software cost per visit and mileage cost per visit. Cash collections have improved. Where we have seen in increase in cost is in HH indirect administrative salaries as we have found it more effective to replace clerical staff with clinical staff in the branch offices due to the process and user permission flow in MatrixCare. Pros The reporting in MatrixCare is very flexible and easy to use. All reports download perfectly into Excel for filtering, sorting or summarizing. This reporting provides clear insight into where the agency is doing well and where the process is bottlenecking. Clinical staff report ease-of-use on iPads in the field. Cons When software release updates are done oftentimes functions working well before the updates no longer work as intended. Software Support is slow with follow-up often required from the customer. Reason for choosing MatrixCare Private Duty We created a scorecard and compared each software to our needs. MatrixCare was very thorough in completing their scorecard and best met our needs.

Clinical Software Coordinator - Health Informatics Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Good solid, stable product that will only get better with time" January 29, 2021 4.0 I would say my experience has been very positive. They have a very strong team, and are devoted to customer satisfaction. There are a bunch of enhancement ideas being rolled out, and they are very willing to listen and implement changes. Pros I do like the functionality, things are not piece mealed together. There are a lot of options for enhancements, which MatrixCare seems very open to. The customer service is absolutely phenomenal, usually closing out tickets within a day or two. Cons Sometimes I wonder about the ease of use for the clinicians in the field. There are certain things that clinicians are not able to do as the software doesnt allow the functionality. Clinicians drive our value, therefore it is important for them to see patients and focus on patient care, and not spend time worrying about how to document it. Reason for choosing MatrixCare Private Duty Honestly, I think it came down to the willingness for MatrixCare to be partners. We did not want just a software vendor, we wanted someone that we could be strategic business partners and innovate together. MatrixCare is definitely delivering. Review Source SV Sharon V. RN Educator Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "MatrixCare" January 29, 2021 5.0 Customer Service, especially Richelle, is excellent. Pros Ease of care plan and order updates while in a visit for Home Care Cons Would like to be able to send out Mutiple Verbal Orders for a patient to an MD from differtent disciplines. Less orders to track. Switched from [Veradigm EHR](https://www.capterra.com/p/276111/Veradigm-EHR/) Interested in Cloud Based EHR Review Source TR Tiffany R. Solutions Administrator Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Interoperability" January 27, 2021 4.0 MatrixCare really is the Leading Post-Acute Software system. They are engaged and very open to new ideas and changes. The support team responds almost immediately and the Customer Support Management is Amazing..... Thank you \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]. Pros MatrixCare is focused on the patients and communicating with Health Care Organizations through the CommonWell. This feature is amazing and provides immediate access for Health Care Providers to retrieve information regarding their patients who have been admitted to Home Health or Hospice. Cons MatrixCare has limited abilities to customize their software. This could be a pro or a con but I have found that sometimes regulatory changes are not the same across the board and sometimes we need a feature that may have been discontinued.

The team at Brightree is always trying to better their product with updates. I really like that they care about the consumer enough to make changes to make it easier to use. Pros Easy to use. Cons Unable to track supervised and unsupervised visits. Review Source SD Shahab D. Dir of IT Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Brightree Hospice" December 28, 2016 4.0 Brightree (Hospice) has added numerous functionalities to improve, enhance, and streamline clinical charting for patients. Brightree iPad app has reduced the charting time for clinicians while adding the functionality for the Hospice Aids to complete their tasks in a paperless environment, hence eliminate the need for scanning and uploading. The account managers are always available and willing to help, their teamwork and cooperation are second to none. Pros iPad app for Clinicians, Physicians, and Hospice Aids saves time, reduces printing/scanning/uploading while improving accuracy. Account Managers cooperation and willingness to help is impressive. Cons Reports are not consistent. Review Source BL Breezie L. Home Health Program Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Regulatory Compliance " December 16, 2016 5.0 We use Brightree for both Home Health and Hospice. We chose Brightree a few years ago after having a bad experience with another vendor. We looked at four vendors and chose Brightree with hopes it would deliver as promised. We were looking for software that would support clinical field staff, office staff, managers, and billing. Brightree has exceeded our expectation. Since using Brightree we have opened multiple locations and recently expanded to other states. Brightree has help make each of these transitions very easy. I would recommend Brightree to anyone who would like a software that does it all while keeping your agency compliant.
