Best for medical practices wanting EHR and billing
DrChrono is a cloud EHR with specialty templates, medical billing, a patient portal, telehealth and AI documentation. Amounts aren't published, every tier asks for a quote, and the vendor lists extra charges for texts, faxes, paper claims and statements.
Who DrChrono is for
- Fits if you run a medical practice and want charting and billing in one place
- Makes sense if you want lab links built in
Who DrChrono is not for
- Skip it if you want a price, as every tier says to request a quote
- Pricey if you send a lot of texts or faxes: $0.05 a text, $0.07 a faxed page and $0.10 a phone call beyond plan limits
- Watch out: extended lab integration for over 40,000 labs is $30 per provider per month
- Watch out: electronic patient statements are $0.59 each and paper claims $1.00 each
Why DrChrono gets a 2.0
Five grades, each with its reason. The GPA is their average: an A is 4 points, an F is none.
- CValue for moneyNo price is published, so we hold it at the middle of the therapy-clinics range ($39 a month) with extra per-use fees on top.
- FFree plan and trialNo free plan and no trial are listed. Each tier says to request a quote.
- BFeaturesEHR templates, billing, patient engagement, telehealth and AI documentation, with nothing in the listing missing from the core job.
- CEase of useNo store rating on record. A full EHR and billing system takes set-up before use.
- BPlatforms and integrationsA web service with Quest and LabCorp links, and no apps listed.

Keep DrChrono, or make your own?
Keep it
To replace DrChrono you would be making insurance claims sent to payers through a clearinghouse. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one.
That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 24 of the 38 other therapy and clinic software grade higher.
What you could make
- Clinical notes and appointment booking: an app builder makes these well.
What you could not
- Insurance claims sent to payers through a clearinghouse.
- Video sessions that meet health privacy rules.
- Dictation that types into any app on your computer.
- AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself.
- Hooks into the device itself: widgets.
- The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
What this rests on. DrChrono’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.
