The CareDrain™ Calculator

See what's draining your agency.

Four numbers about your agency, nine quick answers, and sixty seconds later you are reading the one report no system you own has ever been able to run — where the money is leaving, what next year looks like two different ways, and a thirty-day plan. Your agency's name on it.

YOUR NUMBERSNothing here is an average. Every figure is computed from your answers.
FOUR MINUTESFour numbers, nine answers. If something interrupts you, your answers are saved.
NO MEETINGThis asks you for nothing and books you into nothing. The report is yours.

Step 1 of 3

The four numbers.

Close is fine. The report tells you exactly how each number is used.

Your answers stay on this page until you choose to get your report.

Nine functions run your agency. Where does each one live — and how does it feel?

Answer fast. Your first instinct is the accurate one.

This is the number a buyer would ask about first. It has a name on your report.

Your drain map.

Five ways the same broken setup drains your agency today and quietly limits what it's worth tomorrow. Computed from your answers — nothing here is an average.

I

Where it's draining

The rest of your report is ready.

Behind this line: the dollar figure of the drain, your EBITDA estimate, next year run two ways under a ten percent rate cut, the way of working together your map points to, and your thirty-day plan. We send the report to you, and it stays yours.

A name and a working email — that's all this needs.

No calendar link is behind this button. Just your numbers.

What it costs, in dollars

Time your caregivers lose to screens and paperwork — up to 8 hours per week eachSource: BMC Geriatrics, Ausserhofer et al., 2023. About $4,800 per caregiver per year.
The full yearly cost of running your agency on disconnected systems — the Tangleware™ Tax: lost time, software bills, and the hours your office spends carrying data between tools by handA range, because part of it depends on how your office absorbs the gaps. The methodology note at the end shows every assumption.
III

The same agency, next year, two ways

Both columns assume the same thing: your rate drops ten percent. Only the cost structure changes. Estimated EBITDA today: .

Future A · nothing changes

The cut lands on your current cost structure. The drain keeps its share.

Future B · the nine run themselves

The same cut lands on a business where the work is delivered instead of operated — after paying for that delivery.

What that yearly difference is worth if you ever choose to sellAgencies in this industry change hands at roughly four to six times EBITDA. Whether you ever sell is your decision, and only yours. This line exists so the choice does.
IV

One question, four honest answers

How much of the work do you want to carry? Your map points to one answer — marked below. Diagnosed against your answers, not sold up.

The rates apply to billed revenue and are never added together — 7.97% is the most anyone ever pays. There is no menu of add-ons, because a function pulled out of the nine stops being accountable. Before you are billing, there is no cost at all. And when a claim fails, our team corrects the error codes and rebills at no extra cost — a corrected resubmission is charged once per claim, never per submission.

Each of the nine functions has its own four-minute walkthrough — the work running, not a tour. Start with the one your map marked darkest.
