Lime Health AI vs Devero
Devero is a full EMR for home health and therapy agencies. Lime is the AI documentation layer that works alongside it. Here's how they compare, and why many Devero agencies add Lime on top.
Lime Health AI
Purpose-built AI layer that sits on top of your existing EMR. Ambient scribe, automated ICD-10 coding, OASIS-E2 / HOPE QA review, and admissions automation, all designed to work alongside your current system without rip-and-replace. Real-time coaching flags missed OASIS sections, weak narratives, and documentation gaps while the clinician is still with the patient.
Devero
Cloud-based EMR for home health and therapy agencies. Provides clinical documentation, scheduling, billing, and compliance in one platform. Particularly common among agencies operating across home health and outpatient therapy lines.
AI Layer vs Manual Charting
Lime works on top of Devero. With AI capture and real-time OASIS coaching.
Devero + Lime
Ambient AI captures the visit and generates the OASIS, visit note, and ICD-10 code suggestions. AI flags issues so your QA team can correct them before they affect reimbursement. Notes, codes, and QA results sync to Devero. Less time per chart.
Devero alone
Without Lime, your clinicians document manually inside Devero. Hours per visit. After-hours charting. OASIS errors and coding misses slip through, drive denials, and trigger ADRs.
Lime is the AI documentation layer that keeps Devero as your system of record, without rip-and-replace.

Where They Differ
EMR System of Record vs. AI Layer
Devero is your agency's system of record that handles scheduling, billing, compliance, and form-based clinical documentation. Lime is an AI layer that makes documentation faster and more accurate by adding ambient capture, automated ICD-10 coding, and real-time OASIS QA on top. They serve different layers of the stack, Lime enhances rather than replaces your EMR.
AI-First Documentation
Devero provides traditional form-based documentation workflows, clinicians click through OASIS items, type notes, and complete assessments manually after the visit. Lime's ambient AI scribe listens during the patient encounter and generates structured clinical documentation automatically. For agencies whose clinicians complete documentation at home in the evening, Lime can save 2-3 hours per clinician per day.
OASIS-E2 and HOPE Compliance
Both platforms support OASIS capture, but Lime adds AI-powered real-time QA, flagging inconsistencies, missing M-items, and PDGM optimization opportunities before submission. Combined with HOPE assessment support, Lime adds a documentation accuracy and audit-defense layer that goes beyond what form-based EMRs typically include.
Multi-Discipline Coverage
Devero supports home health and outpatient therapy. Lime is purpose-built for home health and hospice with ambient AI capture, real-time OASIS coaching, and AI ICD-10 code suggestions, a deeper fit for agencies focused on the post-acute documentation and audit-defense workflows.
Better Together
Many Devero agencies pair their EMR with Lime as the AI documentation layer. Lime generates clinical notes, OASIS responses, and ICD-10 codes; results sync back to Devero as the system of record. The combination delivers operational continuity with the documentation speed of AI.
The Bottom Line
Devero is a solid EMR for home health and therapy agencies. Lime Health AI isn't a replacement, it's the AI documentation layer that pairs with your EMR to eliminate after-hours charting, improve OASIS-E2 accuracy, and accelerate ICD-10 coding. Many Devero agencies add Lime on top.
