The short version

  • Only Phreesia has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Phreesia no price is published: the vendor states pricing is customised to organisation size, workflows and products used, and is given only as a tailored quote; Quantum Health nothing is published: no per employee per month rate, no implementation fee, no minimum eligible lives, so an employer cannot benchmark a Quantum quote against anything before entering a sales process.

Where each one falls short

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

Phreesia

  • No price is published: the vendor states pricing is customised to organisation size, workflows and products used, and is given only as a tailored quote
  • The current free access to the Intake platform is time limited and ends on 31 December 2026, with the rate that follows undisclosed
  • A buyer must book a demo before receiving any figure

Quantum Health

  • Nothing is published: no per employee per month rate, no implementation fee, no minimum eligible lives, so an employer cannot benchmark a Quantum quote against anything before entering a sales process.
  • It sells to self insured employers of roughly 500 employees and up, so smaller and fully insured employers are outside the model regardless of interest.
  • Quantum navigates but does not deliver care, so it cannot close a loop with a visit of its own, and members who are steered still have to obtain an appointment through the ordinary network.
  • The pod model depends on staffing continuity, and turnover in the coordinator teams degrades exactly the consistency that the pod concept sells, which is invisible in a demonstration.
  • Savings are measured against counterfactual claims trend, so the number in the return on investment case depends heavily on the methodology chosen, and employers should insist on defining that methodology before signing rather than accepting the vendor own model.
