ClientCare

Editorial Standards

How we research, source, and publish compliance content.

Our Sources

Every statistic, penalty amount, and regulatory requirement cited in our articles comes from publicly available federal sources. These include:

  • OIG (Office of Inspector General) — exclusion data from the LEIE database, enforcement actions, Special Advisory Bulletins, and semiannual reports
  • CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) — eligibility rules, Conditions of Participation, and claims processing guidance
  • Federal Register — inflation-adjusted penalty amounts and regulatory updates
  • KFF (Kaiser Family Foundation) — Medicaid enrollment data, unwinding tracking, and policy analysis based on CMS data
  • SAM.gov — government-wide debarment and exclusion records
  • GAO and MACPAC — oversight reports and Medicaid policy analysis

We do not cite anonymous sources, internal industry estimates, or unverifiable claims. If a statistic cannot be traced to a specific public document, we either link to the source directly or reword the claim qualitatively.

Commercial Disclosure

ClientCare is a commercial software product. Our blog articles are published by Matt Saucedo, the founder of ClientCare. Articles may reference ClientCare's features where relevant to the topic being discussed.

We are transparent about this interest. Our goal is to publish accurate, useful compliance content that helps home health agencies make informed decisions — whether or not they use our product.

Accuracy and Corrections

We strive for accuracy in every article. Regulatory requirements, penalty amounts, and enforcement patterns change over time. We update articles when material changes occur and note the date of last review on each post.

If you find an error in any of our articles, please contact us at hello@clientcare.pro. We will investigate and correct any factual inaccuracies promptly.

Not Legal Advice

Our articles are informational and do not constitute legal, compliance, or regulatory advice. Penalty amounts, requirements, and enforcement practices referenced are based on publicly available federal guidance and may change. Consult a qualified healthcare compliance attorney for advice specific to your organization.
