Fallback order matches the paycheck calculation engine.
Use the same care categories as the main calculator to see how wage assumptions shift by geography.
The table and methodology notes will appear here after you choose a ZIP code and task set.
Compare the same care task against local, state, and national hourly benchmarks.
Choose a ZIP code and task set to populate the local-rate table.
The comparison page mirrors the same location logic used by saved paychecks and exports.
CarePaycheck looks for the submitted ZIP code's metro or regional wage row before using broader benchmarks.
If a local row is missing for a task, the calculator checks the parent state region so the comparison still resolves.
When neither local nor state coverage exists, the national rate provides the final comparison and paycheck fallback.
