CareFree provides a very powerful system that can do both pay and invoicing. Since we already use CareFree for managing the rotas it makes sense that we can use this data to work out exactly how much a carer will get paid, and also how much we would need to charge our clients for the care provided.
Not only this but the system can be further used to work out mileage and travel time if that's something you do as a provider.
Pay and Charge rules can become quite complex, and this short knowledge base article will not detail every aspect of the system - if your organisation is starting to do financials for the first time then we recommend you speak with the CareFree training team to organise a days training which will be tailor made to your organisation.
That being said lets take a look at setting up rules for pay.
First using the top menu bar, press the rules button as follows:
This will open the following screen, notice how this is a completed Rule for Pay, we will examine this before looking at how to add one.
The rules
There are seven rules, typically only six are used within Care Companies.
