The Hidden Cost of Payroll Inefficiencies in Home Care – And How to Fix It with AxisCare + Rockerbox
The Financial Burden of Payroll Inefficiencies in Home Care
Home care agencies operate on thin margins, and payroll inefficiencies can quietly drain thousands of dollars from their bottom line. Many agencies unknowingly miss out on significant tax credits and suffer from costly administrative burdens that impact profitability.
Are You Leaving Money on the Table?
- 70% of home care agencies fail to capture Work Opportunity Tax Credits (WOTC) for eligible employees.
- The average WOTC credit per caregiver hired is approximately $1,500—meaning agencies could be losing tens of thousands annually.
- Payroll inefficiencies, including compliance penalties, manual errors, and missed tax credits, cost agencies up to $50,000 or more per year.
The Root of the Problem
- Missed WOTC Credits – Many home care agencies don’t have an automated process to screen and claim tax credits.
- Administrative Burden – Managing payroll manually or with outdated systems leads to errors, compliance risks, and excessive labor costs.
- Inconsistent Cash Flow – Late reimbursements and payroll timing mismatches create financial instability for home care providers.
