Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
eClinicalWorks Prime
- EHR Only is $449/month per provider and EHR with Practice Management is $599/month per provider, priced per provider rather than a flat practice fee
- The RCM as a Service option charges 2.9% of practice collections rather than a fixed fee
- Practices with more than 9 providers are charged additional implementation fees beyond the included training
Included Health
- Owning both the navigation recommendations and the virtual care delivery creates a structural incentive to steer members to the vendor own clinicians, and an employer should require disclosure and measurement of how often that happens.
- Pricing is per employee per month across the whole eligible population, so a plan with low navigation engagement pays for everyone to serve the minority who call.
- Savings claims rest on avoided costs and changed referral decisions, which are counterfactual by nature, so performance guarantees need very careful definition or they measure activity rather than money.
- The company is a merger of three organisations with different origins, and members and benefits teams still encounter seams between navigation, virtual primary care and behavioural health that the single brand implies are absent.
- It sells primarily to large self funded employers, so mid market employers and fully insured plans find both the pricing and the implementation effort disproportionate to their size.
