What the pricing really means
At first glance, PsyPack looks cheaper at $0/month vs $0/month. But sticker price is only part of the story. Look at what is included on the base plan, how many users you get, and whether you need add-ons to get the features you actually need. The $99/month plan that requires $200 in add-ons is actually more expensive than the $250/month plan that includes everything.

- Pay-per-encounter model at $0.50 each is unique and budget-friendly for low-volume practices

Where Charm Health falls short
- Only 9 G2 reviews with a 3.5 rating suggests limited market presence
- Telehealth is a $20/mo add-on, not included in base price
- AI Scribe costs $125/provider/mo on top of everything else
- E-prescribing and EPCS are separate add-ons totaling $265+/year
Where PsyPack falls short
- Not a practice management platform — handles assessments and nothing else
- Only 12 Capterra reviews total, not listed on G2
- No scheduling, billing, notes, or client portal
- Enterprise plan required for API access
