Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

ChiroTouch

  • ChiroTouch does not publish specific pricing amounts on their website
  • Three tiers exist (Start, Grow, Scale) but prices are not displayed
  • Company directs customers to book a demo or call 800.852.1771 for pricing details
  • Optional add-ons (CT Pay, CT Billing Suite, CT SmartFit) have unknown pricing
  • All ChiroTouch plans include AI features and unlimited support but cost comparison requires direct contact

Kareo

  • Kareo is now part of Tebra and sold under the Tebra brand rather than as a standalone product
  • Tebra publishes no rate: pricing varies with provider count, features and implementation requirements and is quoted during a demo
  • Billing counts clinical providers such as MDs, DOs, NPs and PAs, so adding a prescriber raises the bill even though non clinical staff are free
  • Electronic prescribing of controlled substances setup costs about $75 per provider as a one time fee
  • PDMP integration costs $500 one time per facility plus about $50 per user per year
