Comparing ExaCare with AdmitScore™, a focused review of the referral packet.
If you are evaluating ExaCare, start by asking what it covers and what it leaves to your staff. AdmitScore reads the referral packet and lists the payer, authorization, documentation, and medication details your staff verify, each with the quote and page it came from.
VeriSight Analytics™ and AdmitScore are not affiliated with ExaCare. This page is for teams comparing approaches to SNF admissions.
Which job do you need done first?
AdmitScore reviews the referral packet before acceptance, the same way every time. The table shows what to check for each need.
| If you need | What to check |
|---|---|
| Broader platform scope | How the vendor handles referral management, reimbursement workflow, bed visibility, implementation effort, integrations, and multi-site operations. |
| Packet review first | Whether staff can verify payer, documentation, medication, and care-need details against the packet before you accept. |
| Proof before expansion | A small pilot with a defined packet volume and decision tracking, plus the sample report (a made-up packet), before any broader decision. |
AdmitScore does not approve or deny admissions, guarantee reimbursement, or replace clinical, payer, legal, or operational judgment.
Fit, pilot terms, and what staff can check
Best fit
Facilities that want referral packet review and Medicare Advantage authorization questions without a platform rollout.
A small start
A pilot is set up around your packet volume, review categories, role-based access, and decision tracking. You work with Jack Thayer, the founder, and Peter Thayer, NHA.
Items staff can check
Each item links to its source page, so staff verify it against the referral documents. The review also lists clarification questions for hospitals, payers, pharmacy, or internal reviewers.
Price
AdmitScore pilots are $500 per facility per month for 90 days. See Pricing.
Questions to ask ExaCare
Ask these of any vendor, AdmitScore included.
- Can staff verify the source? Ask ExaCare whether each item points reviewers back to the referral packet, and whether missing or ambiguous details stay visible as clarification requests.
- Does it use SNF admissions language? SNF packet review needs payer, Medicare Advantage authorization, skilled-need documentation, and high-cost medication details. Ask ExaCare whether it also knows the PDPM and MDS Section GG terms your team uses.
- What does a start take from your team? Ask ExaCare what your staff and your EHR need to provide before the first packet is reviewed.
Work out your own review hours
Our planning estimate is about 45 minutes of DON review per packet today and about 15 with AdmitScore. It is an estimate, not a measured result. See how we estimate it, then use the review-load calculator with your own packet volume.
