Which EHR Is Right for You?
If You're Private-Pay Solo
Most solo therapists who don't bill insurance need three things: online scheduling, HIPAA-compliant video, and simple note templates. You can often skip full-featured billing suites and save $20-40/mo. Look for platforms that include telehealth in the base price and offer Stripe or Square for credit-card payments.
If You Bill Insurance
Insurance billing adds complexity. Prioritize platforms with electronic claims submission, ERA/EOB auto-posting, and low per-claim fees. Check whether claims are handled in-house or routed through a third-party clearinghouse like Office Ally, which can affect turnaround time and cost.
Switching EHRs?
Before you migrate, confirm your current EHR lets you export:
- Progress notes (PDF or structured export)
- Custom forms and templates
- Billing history and superbills
- Client portal data (intake forms, consent documents)
Ask your new vendor whether they offer migration assistance or a data-import tool. Budget at least two weeks of overlap to avoid gaps in documentation.
