User Testimonials
	Hospice Tools	MatrixCare
Likelihood to Recommend	[Hospice Tools is] great for hospice and palliative. Not sure it would work well for home health or other areas of healthcare. Avi Kolko Director of Operations & Business Development Read full review	MatrixCare is well suited for the size of this company and its budget. The support is awesome, very professional, polite and knows what they're doing. It is also well suited for my company based on the type of healthcare, LTC, and rehab. Although I don't use the MDS features, I hear my colleagues say how much they like using them. The providers like that they are able to create their progress notes right into Matrix and I like that too because there are no paper notes needing to scan. The providers also find the dashboard very helpful for knowing what orders need to be signed and which patients are due for visits. I am unaware of any scenarios where MatrixCare is not well suited for my company, as far as my role. Incentivized Sam Massanopoli, RHIT Superstar Health Information Manager Read full review
Pros	No answers on this topic	Keeps everything about the residents in one place and is user friendly. We use the notes section so if more than one person is working on something with a resident's file we know what someone else has done as well. Billing and posting payments are a breeze. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	No answers on this topic	the MDS section doesn't always register that a section has been signed and completed, showing up on the dashboard as still needing to be done. The MDS section will state you're still "in" someone's MDS when you're complete. There have been multiple times where I've had to fully log out of Matrix to be "logged out" of someone's MDS even though I had signed. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	No answers on this topic	I have not had any problems with MatrixCare; however, I do not use the whole system and have not had to call MatrixCare or have support from them so I'm not the best to comment on that. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	No answers on this topic	MatrixCare is more updated, when we used our old program is was stuck in the past and was built when we were a much smaller company. MatrixCare is a one-stop-shop so that is why we picked it. There was another company we looked at but we didn't go with it because of the layout of the program.

Return on Investment	No answers on this topic	Having gone from paper charting it has reduced paper waste and streamlined delivery of nursing services/documentation. It has allowed us to track and share documents across many users at one time. The unreliability has been challenging for our team with several outages resulting in delay of care.
