The problem with manual rate searches

Healthcare travelers often need to reference the General Services Administration (GSA) per diem rates to understand the published federal per diem rate information for lodging and meal expenses in their specific work area.

However, manually searching the GSA website for every contract, factoring in seasonal changes, and keeping a reliable record of what the rates were at the time of your assignment is tedious and prone to missing data.

Complex Seasonal Rates

Federal lodging rates can change significantly depending on the month. Without a clear reference, you may incorrectly estimate the applicable rate.

Lost Historical Data

If you don't save the rate at the time of your contract, it can be difficult to find the exact historical data years later during a review.
