Get more control and power over your loved one’s care.
Person-centered care practices are more important now than ever. Families want more control and power over the care, and Ally can help them do that.
EVV or electronic visit verification is one measure implemented by the 21st Century Cares Act that helps to prevent Medicaid fraud, waste, and abuse. It verifies a caregiver’s location by GPS, giving families peace of mind that they are at the right place and providing the right care.
Families choose working with a registry because of the flexibility. Michael Assimon of Griswold Care Pairing of Central NY shares, “Caregivers usually get paid more than other models, etc… and clients like that. Ally helps with geofencing and payment processing, and most families are comfortable with it.”
Communication on your terms.
Talking to caregivers is the epicenter of where care happens. It keeps family members—close or long-distance—in the loop on care plans, medication lists, changes in condition, care notes, and more.
One of the top reasons that caregivers leave their roles in home care is because of communication issues with their home office. Working with a registry helps to bridge gaps in communication by putting you and your family in control.

Get the most for your dollar.
Ally helps families make the most of funds allocated for direct care expenses. You don’t have to manage care on your own with pen and paper. Registries are priced pretty competitively across the board, and with Ally by your side, you can supercharge care for a small fee.
The average family caregiver spends $7,000 out of pocket on care-related expenses. Professional caregivers can make recommendations on the essentials you need, and provide support for tasks that you need help with or respite for when you need a break.
By supporting caregivers who find work through a registry, you are promoting caregiver entrepreneurship, and investing back into them directly. You know exactly where 100% of your money is going.
How Ally can be cost-free to your home care registry.
If you’re looking to make a change with your registry management system, look no further than Ally. You might be on the edge about a decision because of your margins. Rest assured, knowing that you can pass off the costs to your clients.
“Successful caregiver registries pass off the costs of Ally to their clients. You can do this by including the Ally fee in your registry fee that clients pay,” Julio Barea, head of sales at Ally.
“This is an expense that empowers families to receive high-quality care from a caregiver, and many of our customers have had no issue passing this cost along. From a business standpoint, passing along this fee gives you more flexibility to spend money elsewhere, like business development and adding new caregivers to your roster.”
