Hospice Tools review
A priced hospice EMR with mobile charting, timesheets and separately priced billing.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Hospice Tools is a cloud-based hospice and palliative-care suite for independent agencies. Its eDocs module covers clinical charting and patient management, while TimeKeeper handles timesheets, mileage and payroll reporting. Teams can also use smart care plans and interdisciplinary-group dashboards, with web access and mobile apps for iOS and Android. This combination is aimed at small and mid-market teams looking to bring clinical and administrative workflows into one system.
The published plans separate the core package from billing services. Hospice Tools eDocs & TimeKeeper costs $85 per user per month and includes charting, timesheets, web and mobile access, and customizable forms and reports. Integrated Clearinghouse is $235 per NPI/site monthly, including hospice and palliative billing, Ability Network integration and 1,000 transactions per NPI/site per month. Business-rule setup is a one-time $995 for 50 rules; transactions beyond the included allowance cost $0.16 each. A 14-day trial is available. Agencies should account for these distinct charges when assessing the total cost of billing workflows.
Billing features include batch billing, automatic claim generation, electronic or paper claim export, remittance management, and Medicare DDE access for eligibility and claim status. Mobile apps offer real-time synchronization, scanning and upload, while SNF pass-through rate calculation addresses another specific hospice workflow. Ability Network is the named integration, so teams that depend on a broader connected ecosystem should check whether it fits their requirements. Hospice Tools is a fit for agencies seeking priced EMR, timekeeping and billing capabilities with mobile coverage; teams needing other integrations or billing included in the core monthly package should consider alternatives.
