If KanTime is on your shortlist, you're probably weighing two things: what it will cost you, and what your nurses will say about charting on it. Both have answers, and neither one is on KanTime's website.

What KanTime is

KanTime has been around since 1997, which makes it one of the longer-running names in home health software. It is based in Dallas and sells one platform across several kinds of care: home health, home care, pediatrics, hospice, palliative care, and self-directed care, with a reporting product called KanTime+ on top. If you run more than one line of business, that breadth is the reason KanTime ends up on your shortlist.

On its hospice line, physician orders and document handling run through a partner, WorldView, rather than inside KanTime itself. And KanTime does not name an AI documentation feature on its site today. Both facts matter later, when you count the tools you would run on top of it.

What KanTime costs

KanTime does not publish pricing. Neither do most home health EHRs, so that is not a knock on them. It does mean the number you get depends on your census, your lines of business, and what you negotiate, and the quote you see first is rarely the whole cost.

Three things to ask before you compare it to anything:

What is the all-in monthly number with every add-on we will need: document management, eFax, an OASIS scrubber, a clearinghouse, visit verification?
What is the implementation fee, and what does it cover?
What happens to the price when census grows 20 percent?

Ask us the same three. The difference you will find is that Enzo bundles those add-ons into one price, and one of the reasons agencies switch is that they were paying four vendors to make one EHR usable.

How charting goes on KanTime

This is where the reviews get loud. The scheduling and billing side gets praise. The clinician side does not.

"I wish I didn't have to use this system for charting. The frequent issues and excessive charting take my time away from my clients." Teresa A., a nurse, on Capterra, February 2024.

"Set up was terribly difficult and stressful. The staff is of little help." Amy G., an administrator, on Capterra, February 2024.

On the other side: "The software is very easy to use for scheduling and invoicing functions," from Greg S., an agency president, in 2020, and "The best part is the customer support," from Dean B., a company president, in 2017.

Read together, that is a fair picture of a system built for the office first. If your nurses are the ones asking you to look at alternatives, that is the pattern they are describing.

What agencies say overall

KanTime holds 3.7 out of 5 across 27 reviews on Capterra as of September 2026. That is a small sample for a company its age, so read the individual reviews rather than the average, and read the dates. The charting and setup complaints above are from 2024. The praise for scheduling and support is older.

When it makes sense to look elsewhere

Every agency on a system built before the AI era is going to move to software that does the work at some point. Whether that is this year depends on three things, and none of them is a feature list.

Your contract. Most EHR contracts auto-renew with a 60 to 90 day notice window. If yours is far out, start the evaluation now and time the go-live to the day it ends, so you never pay for two systems. Enzo will sign now and set go-live for later so you are not paying for it before you are using it.

Your stack. Count the tools you run on top of KanTime. A document tool, a scribe your nurses found on their own, a coding company, a scheduling spreadsheet. One or two and the switch can wait for the renewal window. Three or more and you are already paying for the system that does the work, in pieces.

Your team. If your clinicians are charting at night and the office is chasing them for it, that is the software, and it does not improve with time.

Where Enzo fits

Here is what a day looks like. A referral comes in and Enzo reads it and preps the admit decision for your coordinator. The nurse does the visit and talks like she normally would, and the OASIS drafts itself while she is in the home. Enzo assigns the visit, then reviews the chart against OASIS, ICD-10 and PDGM before anything bills. Your coordinator, your clinician and your coder approve.

You do not have to switch to get that. Intake, Scribe and QA run alongside KanTime today, and agencies that switch later bring their data with them: patient records, episode history and clinical data move over before go-live, and our team runs the transition with yours.

"What used to take 10 days is now four to five at the very most. I took a risk at first because I didn't know what it was going to look like. Now the results are proven." Trisha Martin, MSN, BSN, RN, Administrator at Alliance Healthcare.

What agencies get back

Charting done in a quarter of the time. Admit decisions in five minutes instead of over an hour. $200 or more per patient, per episode, in reimbursement the chart was already owed. Based on early customer results.
