Can you prove your care minutes?
Right now? To an auditor, today?
If the answer is no, Smartta's 10-Day Compliance Assessment tells you exactly where the gaps are, what they're costing you, and how to close them before you start leaving funding on the table.
The Compliance Emergency
From April 2026, there's up to $33.41/bed/day in new supplement funding — but only for providers who can prove they meet targets. Most aren't ready.
$33.41/bed/day at stake
Providers not meeting care minutes targets will miss out on a new supplement of up to $33.41 per resident per day — funding your compliant competitors will receive.
ASAE 3000 audit required
The Care Minutes Performance Statement must be externally audited. You need a complete, verifiable evidence chain — not a WFM dashboard.
~1,000 homes non-compliant
As of September 2025, 60% of homes meet both targets — leaving approximately 1,000 homes still non-compliant and at risk of missing supplement funding.
What We Assess
A rapid, 10-business-day diagnostic that connects to your existing systems and maps your end-to-end compliance position.
Roster → Actuals
Are rostered care minutes translating to actual delivered minutes? Where are the gaps between planned and actual?
Qualification Mapping
Are RN, EN, and PCW qualifications correctly mapped against AHPRA registration? Are expired or pending registrations creating blind spots?
AN-ACC Alignment
Do resident classifications align with staffing levels? Is the WFM receiving accurate occupancy and acuity data?
System Integration
What data flows between your WFM, clinical system, HR/credentialing, payroll, and government reporting? Where are the manual handoffs?
Evidence Chain
Can you produce a complete, auditor-ready trail from roster to resident to qualification to QFR submission? What breaks under scrutiny?
Financial Exposure

Why Smartta
Your WFM handles rostering. Your clinical system handles care plans. Your payroll handles wages. Nobody governs what happens between them.
No single system fully automates the path from rostering to time capture to qualification verification to AN-ACC alignment to QFR submission to the Performance Statement to external auditor export. Humanforce requires manual file uploads. Deputy doesn't hold clinical data. Your clinical system doesn't know your roster.
That's the gap. That's where compliance fails. That's what Smartta governs.
