New private duty data service
ClearCare Online, Inc., the San Francisco-based provider of cloud-based software for private duty home care agencies, announced on January 9 the release of ClearCare Insights, a new Bid Data analytics system that provides home care agencies access to ClearCare system data related to an agency network.
The company stated that benefits include the ability to actively monitor agency data across an enterprise of any size, analyze data to identify opportunities and inefficiencies, view a complete picture of platform data to ensure compliance, and track performance office by office across an organization's network.
For example, CEO Geoff Nudd told us, Insights leverages forecasting capabilities inherent in Big Data. "You can use analytics or even machine learning to predict when a client is on the verge of going into a nursing home or a caregiver is at risk of burnout and quitting."
Users gain access to data elements stored in a high-performance cloud-based data platform where they can isolate data sets related to specific criteria such as time frame, office location, billing, schedules and more.
"We are committed to giving our customers the tools they need to harness the power of their data," Nudd added. "Our goal is deliver a competitive advantage to our customers and empower them to innovate faster."
