Geotagging in the Aloha Data Collection App

Geotagging in the Aloha Data Collection App

Aloha Data Collection is excited to share its new Geotagging feature!

Alert
Note: Currently, the geotagging in Aloha Data Collection serves for internal auditing and documentation purposes only. Geotagged locations will be displayed when viewing Lesson Notes on the Web and on the App. However, geotagged locations do not display on exported PDF Lesson Notes that will be shared to payors in the case of an audit.
Info
Geo-Tagging is not required to be on to use the Aloha Data Collection App

How do I enable it?

After updating your App, you will receive the following pop-up in your App upon logging back in:


Select your preference for how location will be tracked. You may receive specific direction from your supervisor on which selection to make here.

How it works:

When a user starts a lesson in the App, the App will record both the start time and the location from which the session was started (e.g. a client’s home or school, or a clinic/community location).

When a user completes a lesson in the App, the App will record both the end time and the location from which the session was completed.

These locations will be displayed when viewing Lesson Notes on the App and on the Web


Geotagged locations for both the start and end of the session will be viewable in the App at the bottom of the Lesson Note




Geotagged locations for both the start and end of the session will be viewable on the Web in the top portion of the Lesson Note

FAQs

Is using this feature required for App functionality?

Session execution via the app will not be impacted if location services have been turned off. Based on organizational practices and policies, staff may be asked to enable this feature on their device used for running client sessions.

Will this feature serve to meet payor requirements for EVV or other compliance standards?
No. At this time, the Geotagging feature is designed for internal use only. Geotagged locations will not appear on Exported Lesson Notes that are shared to payors, so cannot be used if a geotagged location is a payor requirement. If a payor has EVV requirements, please reach out to support@alohaaba.com to assist with setting this up!
