The product
What does NeuroLTC do?
It checks every resident's psychiatric medications in PointClickCare on each sync, tells staff what is wrong and what to do, and closes the finding when PointClickCare shows the fix.
What does it check?
Six things: a documented reason for each psychotropic, as-needed (PRN) orders past 14 days, gradual dose reduction (GDR) timelines, doses above a geriatric maximum, a diagnosis that supports the reason, and metabolic labs that are due. Rules reference F605 and 42 CFR 483.45. Antidepressants are shown but not yet checked.
How does a finding get closed?
Staff fix it in PointClickCare. The next sync sees the fix and closes the finding. If a finding does not apply, staff dismiss it with "Does not apply" and a required reason. Clinical decisions are documented in PointClickCare.
Is NeuroLTC a clinical decision support tool?
No. It tracks compliance. It gives no medical advice and does not replace clinical judgment.
Does it replace our psychiatry provider or consultant pharmacist?
No. It gives them a short list to start from.
Who at the facility actually uses it?
Administrators and directors of nursing use the Dashboard and Reports. Nurses and providers work findings on each resident's record. Email carries counts only.
Data and PointClickCare
Does NeuroLTC write to PointClickCare or add double entry?
No. NeuroLTC is read-only. Staff enter only an assignment, or a reason when dismissing a finding.
What is the status of the PointClickCare integration?
The integration is in progress. The sandbox works and validation is pending. NeuroLTC is not yet described as PointClickCare certified. Pilots run on synthetic demo data.
How do you handle PHI? Do you sign a BAA?
Live data starts after a Business Associate Agreement and a pilot agreement are signed. Until then, NeuroLTC runs on synthetic demo data. We do not claim SOC 2.
What is your security posture?
Access is facility-scoped and role-based. Every change is logged. Protected health information is encrypted. See the security page.
Buying and setup
How does a pilot work?
We scope units and checks with you. You start on demo data. Live data follows the BAA and pilot agreement.
How is NeuroLTC priced?
It scales with facility size. We quote it after a short conversation. How pricing works.
How long does setup take?
Staff keep working in PointClickCare. Setup is a read-only connection and a review of the first findings. We set the timeline in the pilot.
