Payroll Processing

Home Care Payroll That Runs From the Same Data as Your Billing

Traditional payroll means exporting hours from one system, reconciling them in another, and hoping the numbers match. CareBravo processes payroll from the same verified visit data that feeds your billing — pay rules applied, overtime calculated, provider files ready.

Payroll Shouldn't Require Reconciling Three Separate Systems

Here's what payroll looks like at most home care agencies today:

Pay period ends — someone exports hours from the scheduling or EVV system
Hours don't match between scheduling and EVV — someone reconciles the discrepancies manually
Overtime needs to be calculated — someone applies state rules, checks split-shift thresholds, verifies live-in calculations
Different caregivers have different pay rates — someone cross-references rates by client, payer type, and shift type
Pay data needs to reach the payroll provider — someone reformats the data into the format Viventium or ADP requires
Volume doubles — every step takes longer. Errors compound. And the person handling payroll is also handling billing, compliance, and everything else.

This is what payroll requires on traditional platforms — hours exported from one system, reconciled against another, overtime calculated manually, pay rates cross-referenced, and data reformatted for the provider. Most agencies don't have the capacity to dedicate someone to payroll processing. So it competes with billing, scheduling, and compliance for the same person's time — and errors cost money every pay period.

Payroll Processing — From Verified Visit to Provider File

CareBravo processes payroll from the same verified visit data that feeds billing. No export. No reconciliation. No reformatting.

Verified Hours Flow In

Clock-in and clock-out times verified through EVV feed directly into payroll. The same data that confirms a visit happened for compliance and billing also establishes hours worked for pay. One source of truth — no manual hour entry or reconciliation.

Pay Rules Applied

Each caregiver's pay rate is applied based on client, payer type, shift type, and location. Rate variations — weekend differentials, holiday rates, client-specific agreements — are applied automatically from the rules configured for your agency.

Overtime Calculated

State-specific overtime rules applied automatically — weekly thresholds, daily overtime where applicable, split-shift differentials, and live-in caregiver calculations. No manual tracking of cumulative hours across the pay period.

Multi-Location Processing

If your agency operates across multiple locations, payroll processes with location-specific pay rules, tax jurisdictions, and overtime calculations. All locations within the same system — no separate payroll setup per office.

Provider File Generated

Pay data is prepared in the format your payroll provider requires — Viventium, ADP, Paychex, or others. No manual export, no reformatting, no copy-paste between systems.

Exceptions Flagged

Missing clock-outs, schedule mismatches, or unusual hour patterns are flagged before pay runs — not discovered after checks are issued. Your team handles the exceptions. The rest is delivered as completed work.

Every step that traditionally requires someone's time is delivered as completed work. Hours verified. Rules applied. Overtime calculated. Provider files ready. Volume grows — payroll keeps pace without consuming more of your team's capacity. That's one of nine functions contributing to 73% average revenue growth across 100+ agencies.

Works With Your Payroll Provider

Viventium

Pay data prepared and delivered in Viventium's required format. Hours, rates, overtime, and deductions — ready for processing without manual file preparation.

ADP

Integration with ADP's payroll processing. Verified hours and calculated pay flow into ADP without re-entry or separate file formatting.

Paychex

Pay data formatted for Paychex processing. Same verified source data, same calculated results — delivered in the format Paychex requires.

Your payroll provider doesn't change. The work required to get data to them does. Instead of someone manually preparing pay files from exported hours, CareBravo delivers provider-ready files from verified visit data. Same provider. Less work getting there.

Your Pay Rules Don't Determine Your Payroll Complexity

Home care payroll is complicated because every caregiver can have different rates based on client, payer, shift type, and location. On traditional platforms, someone applies each variation manually. On CareBravo, they're configured once and applied every pay period.

Client-Specific Rates

Different clients may carry different pay rates based on care level, payer reimbursement, or negotiated agreements. Applied automatically per visit.

Payer-Based Variations

Medicaid, VA, and private pay visits may each carry different caregiver pay rates. Payer type determines the rate — no manual cross-referencing each visit.

Overtime & Split-Shift

State-specific overtime thresholds, daily overtime calculations, split-shift premiums, and live-in caregiver rules — calculated from verified hours across the full pay period.

Location-Specific Rules

Multi-location agencies may have different pay scales, tax jurisdictions, and overtime rules by office. All applied within the same system — no separate payroll configurations.

Payroll Doesn't Operate in Isolation

On traditional platforms, payroll requires data from scheduling, EVV, and billing — but that data lives in separate systems. On CareBravo, every function that feeds into payroll runs within the same system.

Scheduling → Payroll

Shift Parameters Established

Scheduled shift type, client, and caregiver assignment set the pay rate expectations. When the visit is completed, the scheduled parameters and actual hours align within one system.

Scheduling detail →
EVV → Payroll

Verified Hours Flow In

Clock-in and clock-out times verified through EVV become the hours of record for pay. No export, no reconciliation, no discrepancy between "scheduled hours" and "actual hours."

EVV compliance detail →
Billing → Payroll

One Set of Verified Data

The same verified visit data that generates billing claims also feeds payroll calculations. Billable hours and payable hours come from the same source — no separate reconciliation between what was billed and what was paid.

Billing detail →
Training → Payroll

Eligibility Confirmed

Caregivers with incomplete required training can't be scheduled — which means they can't accumulate payable hours for non-compliant shifts. Training compliance and payroll stay aligned.

On a traditional platform, each of these connections is a manual handoff — export from one system, import into another, reconcile the gaps. On CareBravo, scheduling, EVV, billing, and payroll share the same verified data. No gaps. No reconciliation. One source of truth from scheduled shift to paid hour.

Payroll Questions

Yes. Scheduling sets shift parameters and pay rate expectations. EVV verifies clock-in and clock-out times. Those verified hours flow directly into payroll calculations — no export, no reconciliation. Scheduling, EVV, billing, and payroll all run within the same system.

Most home care agencies use Viventium, ADP, or Paychex for payroll processing — then manually reconcile hours between their scheduling software, EVV system, and payroll tool. CareBravo delivers payroll processing within the same system, so verified hours flow directly into pay calculations with no reconciliation step. Your payroll provider stays the same. The manual work to get data to them disappears.

Yes. CareBravo processes payroll across multiple locations with location-specific pay rules, tax jurisdictions, and overtime calculations applied automatically. All locations run within the same system — no separate payroll setups per office.
