Healthie is a HIPAA compliant EHR software built for health and wellness providers. It covers clinical documentation, scheduling, billing, and telehealth in one platform. It's great if your practice involves multiple providers or group-based care models. Also, it offers a developer-friendly API and more flexibility to build custom patient workflows, whereas some competitors like SimplePractice tend to work better for solo practitioners with simpler setups.

Healthie Overview
I think Healthie is a strong choice for small practices and virtual clinics who value easy onboarding, a clean interface, and built-in telehealth tools. Compared to other HIPAA-compliant EHR options, it offers solid integrations and customizable workflows, but users wanting deep clinical documentation or advanced analytics may want more.
It stands out in support and patient engagement features, and I’d suggest teams choosing for flexibility and all-in-one simplicity will get the most from it.

- In-Patient Care TeamsHealthie does not include rounding workflows or real-time bed management for admitted patients.

- Medical Billing DepartmentsHealthie doesn’t have complex medical or insurance billing, coding, and claims handling for high-volume revenue cycle management.
How We Test & Score Tools
We’ve spent years building, refining, and improving our software testing and scoring system. The rubric is designed to capture the nuances of software selection and what makes a tool effective, focusing on critical aspects of the decision-making process.
Below, you can see exactly how our testing and scoring works across seven criteria. It allows us to provide an unbiased evaluation of the software based on core functionality, standout features, ease of use, onboarding, customer support, integrations, customer reviews, and value for money.
Core Functionality (25% of final scoring)
The starting point of our evaluation is always the core functionality of the tool. Does it have the basic features and functions that a user would expect to see? Are any of those core features locked to higher-tiered pricing plans? At its core, we expect a tool to stand up against the baseline capabilities of its competitors.
Standout Features (25% of final scoring)
Next, we evaluate uncommon standout features that go above and beyond the core functionality typically found in tools of its kind. A high score reflects specialized or unique features that make the product faster, more efficient, or offer additional value to the user.
We also evaluate how easy it is to integrate with other tools typically found in the tech stack to expand the functionality and utility of the software. Tools offering plentiful native integrations, 3rd party connections, and API access to build custom integrations score best.
Ease of Use (10% of final scoring)
We consider how quick and easy it is to execute the tasks defined in the core functionality using the tool. High scoring software is well designed, intuitive to use, offers mobile apps, provides templates, and makes relatively complex tasks seem simple.
Onboarding (10% of final scoring)
We know how important rapid team adoption is for a new platform, so we evaluate how easy it is to learn and use a tool with minimal training. We evaluate how quickly a team member can get set up and start using the tool with no experience. High scoring solutions indicate little or no support is required.
Customer Support (10% of final scoring)
We review how quick and easy it is to get unstuck and find help by phone, live chat, or knowledge base. Tools and companies that provide real-time support score best, while chatbots score worst.
Customer Reviews (10% of final scoring)
Beyond our own testing and evaluation, we consider the net promoter score from current and past customers. We review their likelihood, given the option, to choose the tool again for the core functionality. A high scoring software reflects a high net promoter score from current or past customers.
Value for Money (10% of final scoring)
Lastly, in consideration of all the other criteria, we review the average price of entry level plans against the core features and consider the value of the other evaluation criteria. Software that delivers more, for less, will score higher.
