How this calculator works
How is the savings estimate calculated?+
It multiplies your assessments per month by the documentation minutes you spend on each today, then subtracts the time it takes to review PALM’s drafted output. The difference, multiplied by your staff hourly cost, is your estimated savings. Every figure comes from the numbers you enter.
Is this a guarantee of savings?+
No. It’s an estimate based on your inputs and a transparent, editable assumption for review time. Actual results depend on your workflow, payer mix, and how your team adopts the tool.
What counts as “documentation time”?+
The time staff spend after a visit turning the assessment into a care plan, visit notes, billable items, and a service contract — typing forms, re-keying data, and finding the right state-specific clauses.
