Home care teams lose receivables aging past 90 days because nobody chased. In most home care businesses this job has never had software written for it. The backlog only surfaces when a customer or an auditor finds it first.
Collections handled by an autonomous agent, with a human signing rather than writing. Revenue is take-rate, which suits a buyer who wants the cost to track the value rather than the seat count.
