Invoice Checklist
for fast payments
When it comes to paying for your home care services, making sure your invoices have all the right details cansave time and avoid delays. To help you out, we’ve put together a simple checklist of what needs to be included on every provider invoice.

Missing a small detail on your invoice is easy to do, but it can hold up your payment without you even knowing. This quick checklist will help you make sure everything’s in place, so your invoice can be processed without delay and your payment stays on track.
Invoice Checklist
Below is a list of items that must be included on a provider’s invoice for it to be considered compliant and able to be processed. This applies regardless of whether the provider is being paid directly, or whether the client has paid upfront and is seeking reimbursement.
If you are submitting a reimbursement, you‘ll need to provide the invoice or receipt from the provider as well as proof of payment. Missing information, incomplete shift notes, or unverified providers will cause delays in processing. Read our blog post on verification and shift notes.

Paying for your services is easier when your invoices have all the right information. To help you and your providers get it right the first time, we’ve created a simple and clear invoice template.
