HealOS vs ScribeMD
For a solo physician who only wants notes, HealOS lists Core at $49 per month and Plus at $99 per month, currency not stated, while ScribeMD's pricing page lists an individual doctor tier as free forever with no credit card and does not say what that tier includes. On listed price HealOS costs that buyer more.
HealOS is aimed at a practice that wants more than a scribe. Its six agents cover the scribe, a receptionist, benefits verification, prior authorization, fax and referral reading, and billing. The vendor lists 15 EHRs by name, including Epic, athenahealth and eClinicalWorks, and says in its pricing FAQ that it is HIPAA compliant, SOC 2 Type II certified and signs a BAA with every customer.
ScribeMD's buyer is a physician who wants the scribe first, on one of the four EHRs the homepage names. It drafts SOAP and H&P notes and suggests ICD-10 and CPT codes, and groups, clinics and health systems get a custom contract.
