  • Payment processing through CT Pay, the CT Billing Suite, clearinghouse claims and CT SmartFit are all priced as separate add ons

  • Lengthy implementation timeline: 12-24 months for single hospitals, 3-5 years for multi-system rollouts
  • Customization and workflow adaptation requires extensive consulting services
