Register as an Individual Owner/Center/Community


Initial registration for LTC Trend Tracker℠ can be completed in just a few steps. For additional information or assistance in completing the registration process, contact us by email at: help@ltctrendtracker.com. (Please note: Registration for multi-center/community organizations must be completed by the corporate office. Click here to go to the mult-center/community registration form). AHCA/NCAL will need to verify membership and ownership status of the center/community prior to the organization having access to LTC Trend Tracker℠. We may request your CMS 855A if we can not verify ownership.

Step 1. Designate Your Center/Community's Account Administrator. The account administrator will manage the administrative functions of LTC Trend Tracker℠ and will be the primary contact for your account. LTC Trend Tracker℠ representatives will contact your designated account administrator to complete the registration process and undertake other administrative functions as needed. For more information on the duties and role of the account administrator see our FAQ.
