For nurse practitioners rounding on adult family homes · WA · OR · CA

Keep care on course.

The visit note is drafted before you arrive, the coding and the deadlines are checked while you work, and the signed note reaches the home and the family the moment you finish.

Works with the chart and the home’s records you already use. Every screen here shows sample patients.

The problem

Paperwork is winning.

“I spend more time on paperwork than I spend with patients. And I’m still getting denials.”

Nurse practitioner, three adult family homes
Charting

The notes follow you home

The visit ends and the writing starts. Evenings and weekends go to charting that should have been finished at the bedside.

Complexity

Long problem lists, six at a time

Every resident carries several chronic conditions. Holding all of it in your head between homes is the part of the job nobody accounts for.

Coding

Vague codes, under-credited work

The chart supports a specific diagnosis. The claim goes out with the unspecified one, and the denial arrives weeks later.

Systems

Three records that do not talk

The home keeps one record, the chart keeps another, and the billing rules sit somewhere else again. Nothing joins them but you.

A day with AlderHealth

The work moves with you.

One visit, start to finish. Nothing waits for you to get back to a desk.

  1. 02:10 · overnight

    Records assembled

    Charts, hospital documents, and the home’s own notes are pulled together while you sleep.

  2. 06:45 · morning

    Day board ready

    Your route, your visits, and a draft for each one, ordered by drive time.

  3. 09:20 · bedside

    Dictate and review

    Speak the exam. Read what is already written. Change anything that is wrong.

  4. 09:48 · sign

    One tap

    The audit check runs first. If something would fail a records request, you see it before you sign.

  5. 09:49 · delivered

    Note sent

    Staff at the home and the health care POA receive a secure link. You are already driving.

What the product does

Four things, done properly.

01 · Documentation

The draft is waiting for you

Each visit opens with a note already written from the chart and the home’s records. You dictate the exam by voice, edit what needs editing, and sign. Every sentence is marked as yours, drafted, or drafted and edited.

AssessmentDrafted, you edited

Chronic diastolic heart failure, stable. Left knee pain after a near-fall, no fracture suspected. Fall risk reviewed with staff; walker to remain in use at night.

02 · Coding intelligence

Say what the chart already says

When a diagnosis code is less specific than the record supports, you are shown the better one and the line it came from. One patient at a time, or across the whole panel.

I50.9replaced byI50.32Chronic diastolic heart failure

Echo, 4 Jun 2026: preserved ejection fraction, grade 2 diastolic dysfunction.

03 · Compliance engine

The deadline finds you first

Transitional care contacts, chronic care time and language, quality measures, and an audit check that runs before the note can be signed. The rules are watched for you, and they are shown in plain words.

04 · Secure delivery

The right people get the note

The signed note goes to the home’s staff and to the patient’s health care power of attorney through a secure link, opened with a one-time code by text. You can see who opened it and when.

Link expires 15 minutes after the code is used. Every open is recorded.

Coding gaps

A more specific code, with the reason beside it.

Four examples from a sample panel. Each suggestion names the chart entry it came from. You accept it or dismiss it — nothing changes a claim on its own.

Fit

Built for adult family home care, not hospitals.

General AI scribes are built for a clinic room or a hospital floor. The rest of the AFH visit — the coding, the deadlines, the delivery — is left to you.

Comparison describes categories of tool, not any named product.

Trust and security

Patient records, handled carefully.

Protected health information sits at the centre of this product, so the controls around it are not an add-on.

Separate data per practice

Your records are kept apart from every other practice at the database level, not by a filter in the application.

A full audit trail

Who read a record, who changed it, who signed it, and who opened a delivered note.

Single sign-on

Your practice keeps control of accounts and access, including the day someone leaves.
