# Tebra review (2026): is it worth it? > EHR, medical billing and patient marketing for independent practices Checked Oct 24, 2026 ยท graded Oct 24, 2026 by ToolGPA. Tebra is a cloud platform for independent medical and mental health practices in the US, formed from the merger that brought Kareo into it. It combines an EHR with AI note-writing, e-prescribing and labs, insurance billing and claims, online scheduling and intake, telehealth, and practice marketing such as websites and review management. Packages are quoted after a demo. - **Category:** Therapy & Clinic Software - **Made by:** Tebra Technologies, Inc. - **Website:** https://www.tebra.com - **Runs on:** Web, iOS - **Who should skip it:** Skip it if you want a price before talking to sales, as every package is quoted after a demo. - **Facts last checked:** Oct 24, 2026 ## Pricing Tebra's current pricing could not be confirmed from its own site. ## Key features - **Cloud EHR with AI Note Assist:** Charting with flowsheets and templates, treatment plans, AI-generated clinical notes, e-prescribing with controlled-substance and PDMP checks, electronic labs and MIPS reporting. - **Billing and claims:** Real-time eligibility checks, charge capture, electronic claims with rejection and denial handling, automatic payment posting and insurance enrollment. Managed billing is also offered. - **Patient scheduling and intake:** Online scheduling, digital intake, custom appointment reminders, HIPAA-compliant two-way messaging and a patient portal. - **Practice marketing:** A custom practice website, listings on 80+ web profiles including Google Business Profile, patient feedback collection and AI-drafted replies to reviews. - **Telehealth:** Video visits are built into the platform alongside the EHR, and are listed in Tebra's packages on the pricing page. - **Mobile app:** An iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch app for the schedule, patient records, secure messages, clinical notes, e-prescribing, labs and superbills. ## Good for - Independent medical and mental health practices that bill insurance - Practices that also want a website, listings and review management - Clinics with many front-desk and billing staff, who are not charged ## Worth knowing - No subscription prices are published; every package (EHR Starter, Billing Starter, EHR+, Patient Experience + Marketing, All in One) is quoted after a demo. - Controlled-substance prescribing adds about $75 per provider for EPCS setup, and PDMP checks cost $500 per facility plus about $50 per user a year. - Pricing is per clinical provider; providers billing 100 claims or fewer a month can get lower-tier pricing. - The mobile app is listed on the App Store for iPhone and iPad; the pages read mention no Android app. ## ToolGPA grades **GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 24, 2026. Tebra pairs an EHR with AI notes, e-prescribing, insurance billing, telehealth and practice marketing such as a website and review replies. You can't see a price without booking a demo, there's no free trial, and the app is iPhone and iPad only, so a solo therapist comparing prices has nothing to compare. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published. Every package, from EHR Starter to All in One, is quoted only after a demo with sales, so you can't set it against this category's $39 middle until you've had the call. - **Free plan and trial: F.** No free plan and no trial on record. The way in is a sales demo and a quote. - **Features: B.** Charting with AI notes, e-prescribing with controlled-substance and PDMP checks, labs, eligibility checks, claims with denial handling, scheduling, intake, a patient portal and telehealth, plus a website, listings and review replies. No gap in the job. - **Ease of use: C.** No App Store rating on record. Packages are put together with sales, and controlled-substance prescribing needs identity proofing and PDMP setup. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** Web plus an iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch app for the schedule, records, notes, prescribing and labs. No Android app is named, no desktop app, and the listing names no integrations. These are ToolGPA's own grades.

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: 11 of the 12 other therapy and clinic software grade higher. - You could make: Clinical notes, appointment booking and review collection: an app builder makes these well. - You could not: Insurance claims sent to payers through a clearinghouse. - You could not: Video sessions that meet health privacy rules. - You could not: A real app for iOS. Something home-made would be a web page. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. - You could not: Hooks into the device itself: an Apple Watch app. - You could not: What a company asks for before it lets staff use something: HIPAA. - You could not: The depth: we grade its features B, which means it covers the whole job.
