MONTREAL, CANADA —21st March 2023—AlayaCare, an end-to-end home and community-based care platform, today published a report showcasing the return on investment (ROI) results achieved by its customer, North Country Home Services (NCHS). This study was conducted by an unbiased third-party research firm, Nucleus Research, profiling how NCHS uses AlayaCare through in-depth interviews and analysis to back up all results. Located in up-state New York, NCHS is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to supplying home care services to help its clients remain independent in their own homes.
In 2021 NCHS integrated the AlayaCare Cloud platform to take over end-to-end client management for its multiple locations in New York state. Citing return on investment of 172 percent with payback in 8.4 months, Nucleus Research’s comprehensive analysis underscores the cost savings recognized by NCHS due to increased compliance, reduced paper processes and an uptick in streamlined operations.
Having previously utilized another home care software for billing and client related processes, North Country Home Services integrated the AlayaCare platform in 2021. The key motivator to move to AlayaCare was to realize productivity improvements, increased compliance capabilities, and increase state billing collections. Implementing AlayaCare also resulted in an 84 percent reduction in bad debt that had accumulated at NCHS because of the lack of visibility from their older solution into outstanding invoices. Nucleus’ study shows that during the first year of deployment, NCHS paid off its investment in AlayaCare in under nine months and is on trajectory to achieve 172% ROI over three years.
“The findings in this ROI report commissioned by AlayaCare re-validated our decision to integrate AlayaCare Cloud to manage all the aspects of home-based care that North Country Home Services offers,” said Chris Czadzeck, Chief Operating Officer at NCHS. “We were both pleased and surprised at how fast our AlayaCare investment paid for itself in under a year, allowing our care givers to provide an even higher caliber of care to our clients with insightful data, optimized visit allocation, streamlined payments, and happier families,” said Czadzeck.
With constantly changing Electronic Visit Verification (EVV), scheduling, billing regulations, and compliance standards—NCHS chose AlayaCare based on its reputation rather than risking re-configuring its existing technology deployment. The Nucleus report was able to show that the cost: benefit ratio for moving to AlayaCare over the totality of the initial deployment period (three years) to be 1: 2.5—or for every dollar spent on AlayaCare, NCHS is making $2.50 in return.
“Businesses need insight-based ROI results to justify that they made the right technology decision through unbiased, factual analysis,” said Joseph Arocha, Research Analyst, Nucleus Research. “In partnership with AlayaCare, we applied industry proven methodologies to reveal how North Country Home Services is benefitting from improved collections and increased visit ratios that positively impacts back office and front-line operations for their home care business—ultimately delivering a 172% ROI,” added Arocha.
“One of the core pillars of AlayaCare as a technology-positive company is relying on data, measurement, and analytics to help us and our customers provide better home-based care and services to our loved ones who wish to recover and age at the place they call home,” said Adrian Schauer, Founder and CEO, AlayaCare. “This ROI report further proves the value and impact the AlayaCare Cloud platform can bring to home care businesses of all sizes from SMB and independent agencies to enterprise and franchise providers,” added Schauer.
