Clinicea vs Medesk (2026): which should you pick?

Pick Clinicea if

• Fits if you're a solo practitioner outside the US who wants a per-practitioner price
• Works for clinics that want a trial before they talk to sales

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you need US dollar pricing, as only ringgit is shown
• Pricey if you need custom EMR forms, quoted at MYR 499 to 1,799 once
• Watch out: the patient portal is MYR 149 a month per clinic, and lab and pharmacy modules are add-ons
• Tight if you want an API, white-labelling or the Growth Program, which need Enterprise at MYR 149

Pick Medesk if

• Fits if you're a solo or two-person clinic with under 50 visits a month
• Works for private clinicians outside the US who want online booking

Look elsewhere if

• Tight if you grow past 50 appointments a month, as you must move to Pro
• Pricey if you add modules, which cost 20% more on the base, and SMS is charged per message
• Watch out: the pricing page shows different prices by country, and $28 is the US figure
• Skip it if you bill insurers, since claim submission isn't listed
