CareCade is a home care agency management platform for Washington State agencies serving people with developmental disabilities through DDCS/DDA services. It brings scheduling, electronic visit verification (EVV), billing, payroll, recruitment, and bookkeeping together. Staff can arrange appointments with drag-and-drop scheduling and track client service hours and units. Caregivers can clock in and out with GPS capture; the caregiver app can work offline and supports schedules, tasks, and incident reports. Billing tools include DSHS-compliant reports, ProviderOne EVV integration, and DAT files for Medicaid billing. Families and case managers can access free portals for appointments and service details. CareCade also includes a careers page, applicant tracking, digital onboarding forms, bookkeeping with bank sync and profit-and-loss reporting, and AI agents that draft tasks for staff review and sign-off. The service offers Android, iOS, and web access. Grow costs $300.00 USD per month for up to 50 clients; Scale costs $550.00 USD per month for unlimited clients. A 14-day trial offers full access without a credit card.
