Where each one falls short

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

Curve Dental

  • Pricing not publicly disclosed; requires personalised quote request
  • Startup practices receive special pricing but rates not specified
  • Implementation and licence fees apply with initial upfront costs
  • All-in-one model means no option to use only specific features separately

Healthie

  • The Core plan is capped at ten active clients, which no working practice stays under, so the real entry price for anyone with a caseload is the 49 dollar Essentials tier or higher.
  • Insurance billing is not native: claim submission runs through a separately priced ClaimMD integration starting around 30 dollars a month, so a practice that bills payers is buying and reconciling two systems.
  • Costs stack quickly beyond the headline plan, with ePrescribing at 40 dollars per clinician per month, inbound fax at 10 dollars, additional Group clinicians at 50 dollars each and card processing at 2.9 per cent plus 30 cents.
  • Client counting is based on active clients, and the definition of active is set by the vendor rather than by you, so seasonal or intermittent caseloads can push a practice into a higher tier for clients it is barely seeing.
  • It is built around ambulatory wellness and virtual care, so specialties needing lab ordering, imaging, in house dispensing or complex care coordination will find the clinical model too thin and will not find those modules to buy.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages

Curve Dental: How much does Curve Dental cost?

Curve Dental does not publish standard pricing. The company offers personalized quotes based on practice size and needs. Curve highlights that customers save thousands annually compared to traditional systems, but specific pricing requires contacting the sales team or requesting a demo.

Source
Healthie: Is the API available without an enterprise contract?

Yes. API access is available on standard published plans, which is why digital health startups use it as a clinical backend.

Curve Dental: Does Curve Dental offer special pricing for startups?

Curve Dental mentions special pricing on implementation and license fees for startup dental practices, but specific pricing is not published. Startup practices must request a quote directly from the sales team.

Source
Healthie: Can Healthie submit insurance claims?

Only through the separately priced ClaimMD integration. Native CMS 1500 generation is included, but submission is an add-on.

Curve Dental: How do I get a Curve Dental pricing quote?

Contact Curve Dental directly at 888-910-4376 or [email protected], schedule a personalized demo, or use the ROI calculator on the website. The company will provide a custom quote based on your practice's specific needs.

Source
Healthie: What does an active client mean for billing?

It is a client with recent activity in the platform, not everyone in your database. Tiers are set by that count, not by seats.

Healthie: Is it HIPAA compliant?

Yes, and a business associate agreement is available. The client-facing mobile app and portal are covered.
