Our Verdict
SimplePractice is a clinical practice-management system with scheduling, records, telehealth and insurance workflows. Standard plans now start at $49, $79 and $99 monthly; group clinicians and claims are additional costs. Its 30-day trial and time-limited introductory promotion should be distinguished from standard rates. A general scheduler can suit non-clinical bookings, but cannot replace protected health records, a BAA-scoped clinical workflow or insurance billing. Compare only the workflows you actually need.
