Partner Spotlight: RN Pad Clinical assessments can take up a lot of a nurse’s time, especially when paperwork, signatures, physician orders, and certification periods all have to be managed separately.   RN Pad helps homecare agencies bring that work together in one place. Nurses can complete assessments on any device, with SMART fields that carry information across documents and help reduce errors.    RN Pad also helps agency teams stay on top of the administrative work surrounding assessments, including MD orders, remote signatures, certification periods, approvals, and corrections.   Through their integration with HHAeXchange agencies can spend less time managing paperwork and more time focused on care.

We're at the National Homecare Conference in Orlando and having the best time! There have been so many great sessions on where homecare is headed, and we've had tons of conversations with agency owners and operators tackling the same challenges we hear every day. If you are here today be sure to stop by the HHAeXchange booth to hear more about how we help agencies simplify EVV, stay ahead of compliance, and spend less time on admin work and more time on care. Thanks to the Home Care Association of America for putting together a great event.

States are getting better at catching Medicaid fraud before the money goes out the door, not after. DC is layering EVV GPS data on top of claims data to flag weird billing patterns. Arizona's using AI to flag high-risk claims before they're paid. MFCUs recovered $4.64 for every dollar spent last year, nearly $2B total. There's also a stat in there about Medicaid renewals—47% went through last April without anyone touching paperwork, approved automatically because the state's system could already verify eligibility from existing data. This is where the industry is headed. Read more about what states are doing to improve program integrity in the National Association of Medicaid Directors: https://lnkd.in/e6CH5eBp

Check out this clip from our webinar with Brian Portewig, SVP of Customer Success at HHAeXchange. His take on what separates agencies that stay ahead: EVV can't be a box you check right before submitting a claim. It has to be part of the job every day, built into how caregivers actually work, not something you scramble to confirm after the fact.

What does "HCBS" actually mean? The SCAN Foundation and Human Services Research Institute reviewed 229 definitions pulled from over 7,500 sources to build a shared, consensus definition of home- and community-based services. It's not tied to Medicaid or any single program, so it holds up across populations, ages, and funding sources. As states rethink Medicaid HCBS spending, common language makes it easier to measure outcomes, hold programs accountable, and show what's actually working.

Payment posting might be the most overlooked step in your revenue cycle. When you post payments against claims, you find out fast whether you're billing at the wrong rate, missing an authorization, or losing units you didn't know you'd used. Phil Feldman, our National Director of Revenue Cycle Management, explains why the agencies collecting the most revenue are the ones actually reading what their payment data tells them.

The direct care workforce is now the largest workforce in the country. There were nearly 5.8 million workers in 2025, up from 3.6 million in 2015. PHI projects an additional 886,000 new direct care jobs by 2035, with 9.6 million total job openings when you factor in turnover, which is more than any other single occupation in the US. Homecare is driving most of that growth: there are 773,000 new jobs projected through 2035, a 21% increase. But wages haven't kept pace. Homecare workers earned a median $16.98/hour in 2025, still $3.57 below comparable occupations. Additionally, federal Medicaid cuts could impact the pipeline just as demand accelerates.
