Overview
SimplePractice is practice-management and EHR software aimed mainly at private-practice therapists and other behavioural-health clinicians, with telehealth built into the product rather than sold separately.[10] It is a strong choice where the clinician wants scheduling, notes, payments, insurance billing and video visits in a single subscription.
Solo practitioners choose among three plans. Starter costs US$49 a month, Essential US$79 a month and Plus US$99 a month, each billed monthly, with a 30-day free trial and an introductory 50% discount for the first three months when a paid account starts within seven days. Group practices pay US$99 a month for the first practitioner and US$74 for each additional practitioner on Plus, and groups of six or more clinicians can request custom pricing. Plus is the tier that adds group appointments and group telehealth, a premium support line and advanced analytics.[10]
Add-ons are an important part of the cost. The Care Aide AI suite, which includes Note Taker, a telehealth Session Sidekick, a treatment-plan tool and client summaries, costs US$59 a month for the account owner plus US$49 for each additional clinician; Note Taker on its own is US$35 a month. ePrescribe costs US$49 a month plus an US$89 setup fee, and Insurance Navigator claim filing is charged at US$1.79 per claim.[10] The total for a practice using AI notes, prescribing and claims can therefore be well above the headline plan price.
