### "Nadirah SimplePractice Review"

July 25, 2019

4.0

I have had great experience with SimplePractice. I like that I can continue my practice without paying excessive rent for office space.

Pros

I like it is an all in one virtual office. The Telehealth video allows me to visit with client even while traveling.Collecting payment is less of a hassle. Love the client portal such appointment reminders, al of the required forms, such as confidentiality, can be emailed to client. You can add the link to your website. I like the virtual office so far.

Cons

The pros outweighs the cons. I like to call for assistance and get an immediate answer. The assistance is email based. Sometimes, the profile can get cumbersome, especially when you have occurring appointments with the same clients.

Reason for choosing SimplePractice

I reviewed both therapynotes and simplepractice. I believe the name attracted me along with the free trial. Once the free trail ended, I thought about how it supported my goals of leaving a physical office to a virtual office.

### "Administration is Frustrating"

May 26, 2021

3.0

Pros

It is simple to use and if you don't have a large number of clients that you see then it works well.

Cons

None of the billing reports include all data points that is necessary for keeping track of payments and insurance reimbursements. For example, one report may have date of service and paid amount, but not the date the payment was made or for which clinician. Another report may have the date of service, client, and clinician, but not the payment amount or date it was paid. This makes it necessary to keep records outside the system which creates a problem for record keeping from a HIPAA standpoint. It's also a problem that we are paying for a system that doesn't cover all our needs. The second significant problem is that Simple Practice doesn't allow patient medical record numbers. They also have stated they do not intend to include this in future improvements. When you can't use the billing reports because they are incomplete, and then you can't assign a medical record number to a patient, it makes it extremely difficult to follow HIPAA guidelines on record keeping. You can assign a medical record number to a patient, but there is no place to put it so you are unable to do any reports or searches using the number. And, again, you must keep a record of it outside the system.

Hi Amber, thank you for the detailed review! You're right, none of our Reports include the date an insurance payment was made, but the Appointment Status Report includes the date of service, amount owed, amount insurance paid, amount client paid and the clinician's name. Here's more on the Appointment Status Report: \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\]! Although you can't assign a medical record number in the system, each client has a unique numerical code in the URL. You can use these numbers, or the entire URL to distinguish your clients from one another outside the system. - Ruth from SimplePractice

### "Overall Helpful Software), as well as "

September 28, 2018

5.0

I'm surprised to love SimplePractice so much! It's been a really great way to take control of and streamline multiple facets of my practice.

Pros

I switched from paper files to SimplePractice, and as someone who doesn't always enjoy the tech version of things, I'm a surprised fan of SimplePractice. I enjoy the ease of scheduling and the 2-way sync with my Google Calendar, the paperless intake process (which I finally started using a few months in and wish I had been using it from the beginning), and being able to track my income and completed notes. Customer service has also been very friendly thus far.

Cons

There are very limited demographic questions for clients in the intake process, which are unfortunately not editable by the clinician. I have the option to create own intake paperwork, but have to inform clients to ignore the demographic section and just fill out the more affirming open-ended questions in my intake form. Credit card integration through Stripe is great in theory, but I have found much cheaper rates (with stored cards and HIPAA compliance) through Ivy Pay. I also wish that the "Insights" section showed estimated income for all upcoming months with scheduled appointments, not just the current month. It's an incredibly helpful feature and would be great to use to plan our farther ahead.

### "Reliable, but pricey"

October 13, 2022

5.0

Consistent, reliable, but feels like I’m on my own when I encounter questions/issues.

Pros

Everything is in one place, and easy to use. The platform is reliable (I don’t use the telehealth feature), and straightforward.

Cons

That I have to pay the highest tier price simply because I wanted to keep calendar syncing. I don’t use the telehealth, and everything else was available under the mid tier price. Also, you can never actually talk with customer service, everything has to be searched in their FAQ sections.

### "Simple practice has been an efficient EHR "

August 9, 2023

5.0

Overall it has been a great experience.

Pros

It is easy to use. The calendar is straight forward. The videos are hippa compliant which is what most therapists look for. Everything is in one place which makes it great (notes, chart, intake, assessments, insurance codes, superbills)

Cons

Sometimes the video doesn't work due to some cache that has to be cleared to use. Sometimes clients do not get the video link

December 11, 2022

5.0

Very good experience. Despite having some issues with this platform, still, simple practice is helpful for my everyday work.

Pros

Simple Practice is easy to use and super reliable. I can manage everything in one place like client management, billing and other related transaction.

Cons

No immediate phone support to customers.

### "SLP Private Practice "

September 21, 2021

5.0

Pros

Simple Practice has been an amazing software to use while running my own speech therapy private practice. It has streamlined all aspects of my practice. It is very helpful to have all intake forms on line so that I can send them to families to fill out and they are automatically put into the clients file. The billing is very easy to use and I have had no complaints from families. I like the calendar and scheduling features to help me organize sessions each week.

Cons

Simple Practice had a learning curve when I first started using it in my practice. It took some time to learn the features and there are some features that do not apply to my practice. The price did go up after using the program for about 6 months. I also built my own website through Simple Practice and was not thrilled with the lack of variety to use in the website.

### "I wish Simple Practice did more, was easier to use, and the customer service was better"

November 7, 2019

4.0

Barely satisfied. I ran out of room in the Con's box.

Pros

As a working mom of two young children, I was looking for something to save me some time. Once I figured it out on my own (which took too long in my opinion because of unhelpful video tutorials and unhelpful customer service), it now has saved me some time. I like how easy it is to chart progress notes. It has saved time and desktop space. Once I figured out how to submit claims, I appreciated not having to manually enter the information myself every time I have submitted in the past. These were two main reasons I wanted to switch.

Cons

I wish it could do more and was easier to use. Here are some features that would be great additions to Simple Practice: - Have the ability to be Excel where I can track office expenses (i.e., office supplies, tax deductions) - You MUST make customer service easier to get ahold of and more knowledgeable. Email back-and-forth communication is a frustrating customer service option. - Have your customer service people be more professional. When I video-ed for my free 30-minute video at the beginning of using the software, the person was late, not professionally dressed, and looked like they were at a beach house. I was also frustrated that the employee did not know more than I did. They had to check-in with people and then get back to me. I knew much more about insurance and how it worked than the person I spoke to. - I dislike the tutorial videos - they were not very helpful and felt like a waste of time. - In the Coverage Report, I would greatly benefit from being able to get the SPECIFIC benefit information for Mental Health services. This is often different from the patient's medical benefits (different copays, coinsurances) - Have it easier to be able to pick the insurance carrier from the insurance list - it is currently very confusing - I am certain I am not getting the most out of the software but am frustrated because I don't know how to get more out of it. I don't feel that I can count on Simple Practice team members to help me either.

Reason for choosing SimplePractice

Because my trusted supervisor uses it. However, once I talked to her about my issues, she said she had the same ones.

### "Simplepractice new pricing structure forces all to pay highest level"

February 2, 2022

1.0

Great until now.

Pros

None.

Cons

The site just announced a new pricing structure that removes important features -- none of which are costly to implement -- from their lower cost plans. In order to have a biller added to your account or have calendar synchronization, one has to buy the top level.

When changing our pricing, we conducted extensive research on how to charge customers at a rate that was commiserate with the services we provide and the labor it requires. We also conducted research on the necessary features and most utilized functions and segmented that data based on the stage of private practice the customer was in: how long they'd been in private practice, if they were a solo-practitioner, small group, large group practice, client case load etc. The new Essential Plan is very similar to our sunset Professional Plan, but it's meant for a solo-practitioner. We've tailored 3 distinct plans to better fit the stages our customers' private practice journey - including an affordable Starter plan. We added many new, highly requested, features in 2021, and extended options for customer support. We appreciate your feedback as we continue to build our product and introduce more customization in our subscription plans in the future. -Sara

February 3, 2022

4.0

Pros

Easy to customize Client portal easy to upload into client charts

Cons

Customer services is not the best. As of March 25, 2022 they have increased prices and put the most common features (appointment reminders, calendar sync) in the most expensive package (making it a $30 increase for no additional features) Simple Practice does not listen to feedback from their customers.

### "Price Gauged Solo Practitioners!"

February 1, 2022

3.0

The last year has not been a good experience and in the process of looking for another EHR.

Pros

All the features it has the ability to give a practice.

Cons

Have been using for many years. Always felt it was a great value. Over the past year or so they have added features that are not necessary and things most therapists already have (EG websites, directory, forms). They have officially raised their prices which is understandable; however, the drastic increase that went from a basic feature (such as calendar syncing) or an added biller is only available on their most expensive tier package. They essentially are forcing many providers to increase paying them over $30 more a month or having to switch the EHR software. It makes sense to add more options but to make a lot of options "basic" that are not used by most of us to charging a lot more for solo practitioners is highly disheartening.

### "Excellent EHR with amazing support"

February 9, 2018

4.0

Love the flexibility of being able to do my notes and billing from any computer.

Pros

Pros: The integration of billing and charting in a single piece of software, the ease with which clients can access the portal and manage their own billing and statements, the secure messaging feature for clients, the flexibility of the note taking system, the fact that it was developed by mental health professionals for mental health professionals, the responsiveness of their support and development teams to suggestions. I also like that it has a free option though I use the full version myself.

Cons

Very few cons. Occasional bugs, though these have typically been addressed quickly. I also wish there were a way to send monthly statements to all my clients by email rather than doing them individually.

### "Excellent product and value for independent SLPs"

September 21, 2021

5.0

I have had a great experience with Simple Practice. All of my business and therapy needs have been met with this one software solution. Customer service is excellent, especially once you understand the best routes for requesting support that is needed.

Pros

This product is so easy to use and is so intuitive with all of the necessary features for an independent practitioner built right in. It is so much easier to use than so many of the big name EHRs on the market.

Cons

The telehealth functions are probably the area the need the most improvement. It is very functional for me in my practice and there has been great improvement recently. One of the most lacking aspects at this point is the ability for the patient to be able to take control for truly interactive engagement between therapist and patient.

Reason for choosing SimplePractice

Based on the cost and the functions that were included, as well as the ease of use and intuitiveness of the day to day functions as identified through the trial period.

### "Overall great software that could use a few improvements"

July 31, 2019

4.0

Overall, I have been happy with Simple Practice. I wanted a place I could handle paperwork, notes, billing, scheduling, and secure video and messaging--this has got it all. It's priced fairly, and so far has been more consistent than more expensive competitors. The support staff is helpful and quick to respond, but I would like to see clients have direct support access so that I am not having to be a middle person when they have technical issues. (I was told they try to limit client contact for privacy reasons, but with a BAA and informed consent in place, I don't see how privacy would be an issue.) The biggest change I would like to see is for clients to be able to upload and send documents. This is something I'd imagine multiple users would appreciate as many of us are offering telehealth and need to have a copy of each client's ID. Also, it would be more convenient for providers if clients could access their demographics so that the provider is not responsible for making changes whenever they'd like to opt in/out of text or email alerts. Finally, I'd like to see the consent documents moved out of the client portal and with the other forms so they are more easily accessible for updating.

Pros

Mostly user-friendly, responsive and helpful customer support, customizable templates, clear video, easy client onboarding and billing, great value for the price

Cons

Placement of consent documents is awkward and not intuitive. I would like the client to be able to send documents to me, access tech support, and change their demographic info and opt in/out choices.

### "Great product and easy to use BUT No MFA"

September 30, 2022

4.0

Billing is much more streamlined, accurate, and simple.

Pros

Excellent features, very easy for staff to use, Portal is great, Insurance Billing is excellent.

Cons

Reporting is OK but limited. Customer Service tends to give stock answers. The system's lack of MFA (Multi-factor Authentication) will cause us to lose our cyber insurance at year end unless we switch to another vendor. It is for this reason that I cannot recommend this product at all, since MFA is already an industry-standard for software security - it is a mystery why SP has not yet implemented it.

### "Overall, a well-designed and easy-to-use EMR"

July 24, 2018

5.0

This software keeps me organized, allows me to keep my patient information secure, integrates scheduling/billing/documentation in one place, and offers an app that is well coordinated with the full desktop experience.

Pros

The design of the software is clean and intuitive, not just the portion experienced by clinicians but also the patient/client portal. I found it easy to create my own templates and appreciate the ability to import the prior note to edit it for each session rather than having to start anew each time I meet with someone. Scheduling both by desktop and by app are very easy to use, allowing to set up repeat appointments. I appreciate the ease of generating superbills and invoices, changing charges and correcting them, and the option of manual inputs of payment if you choose not to use the integrated credit card payment system (Stripe). I really appreciate the option of "privacy mode" so that patient's full names are not displayed on my calendar. The 30-day trial was very helpful for ensuring that I was getting what I hoped I was and it was nice to be able to try both the essential and the professional features to figure out which plan made more sense for my practice.

Cons

1\. I think others have mentioned the irritation of not being able to contact someone directly for customer support. Emailing is fine, it's not a huge deal, but it just creates delays with issues that I think could be worked out quickly with a phone call. 2. As a psychiatrist, it would be helpful if there were ways to prominently post the patient's allergies, medications, etc in a way where you wouldn't have to hunt through your prior notes to find them. However, this software is marketed to behavioral health professionals broadly rather than psychiatrists specifically, so I wouldn't expect it to be so tailored. 3. I would like to be able to customize the mini-website that my patients see in more ways than what's currently available. 4. The rates for Stripe seemed a little steep (at least for a solo practitioner) but it's your only option if you want an integrated credit card system. In the end, I am doing that piece with a different service to avoid the higher rates.

Lisa, thank you so much for your thorough and thoughtful review of SimplePractice. We're glad to hear that you find SimplePractice to be clean and intuitive, and proud to support the work that you do! Did you know you can schedule a one-on-one screensharing session with a Product Specialist at your convenience, any time? We're always standing by to help. I'd also recommend using a Sticky Chart Note to keep information like allergies and medications at the top of the client's chart - just create a Chart Note and set the date to sometime in the future, and it'll stay at the top of the chart! Thanks again for choosing SimplePractice. We're glad you're a part of our community! - Gillian from SimplePractice

### "Simple says it all, easy to set up for solo providers"

September 13, 2024

3.0

Simple Practice is fundamental and ideally suited for small practices not credentialed with insurance companies. It excels for solo providers, offering numerous features that many EHRs typically charge extra for, all while being highly affordable.

Pros

Simple Practice is straightforward and user-friendly. Its setup is convenient, reducing unnecessary stress and simplifying error correction. Therapists may find it particularly beneficial, especially if they provide super billing or accept private payments.

Cons

Accidentally deleting items can be problematic, especially when in a rush or with patients waiting, as retrieval can be difficult. The calendar system would benefit from improved templates to reduce the need for manual input, which currently creates excessive administrative time. The ability to apply changes all at once, rather than individually, would also be advantageous.

September 21, 2021

4.0

Overall would recommend to anyone with a small practice who is willing to put the time/effort into creating their own templates.

Pros

Overall this software is very intuitive. It's relatively easy to customize and I love having my documentation in billing all in one place for such a low cost. The customer services is exceptional. Anytime I have a question I simply send a message and link and I have a helpful response within 24 hours.

Cons

As a pediatric SLP, I have had to create my own templates for pretty much everything due to insurance requirements and the nature of my assessment and treatment. This can be time consuming for sure. I would love to be able to use the telehealth software, but I really need to be able to give the kids remote control in order to keep them engaged and as far as I know that isn't a feature at this point. The billing can get confusing, but the customer service has been incredibly helpful with this and I feel it's mostly due to the complexity of the billing for that client more so than the software.

### "Excellent software, simple design"

September 30, 2019

5.0

Overall it is the best software solution that I was able to find and I tested quite a few. The only other one that came close at a comparable price was Therapy Appointment but I found Simple Practice to be overall better. I do like it and really hope that they constantly improve the software to include the things I mentioned above. If they do then I do not see myself leaving Simple Practice for a long time.

Pros

For me the best feature of this software is the online integration such as the client portal, the syncing with my google calendar, the video appointment capability, online scheduling, online bill payment, texting feature, automatic appointment reminders and easy online access to my EHR. I also like the simple modern design - this is what initially attracted me to simple practice. I have had good experience with customer service. Sometimes chat has been available but other times I've had to email them (but I wish chat was always available).

Cons

I want more customization capability. Such as customizing what the client portal looks like (graphic design of the portal is lacking). Also would like to better customize the reminder and welcome emails, such as by being able to use rich text formatting. I would like to be able to customize discreet data fields in the EHR, such as being able to edit my demographics form to include things I want to track. And also be able to have discreet custom data fields such as to keep track of PHQ-9 scores or other biometric data I want to be able to track over time. I would also like to have faxing built into the software because I work closely with medical providers and this is their primary way of communicating with other providers. Also wish they would offer a different credit card processing vendor because Stripe is one of the most expensive ones I compared.
