Why practices look for Jane alternatives

  • No e-prescribing is listed on Jane's pricing page, so prescribers need another option.
  • Balance ($59/mo) is limited to 20 appointments a month.
  • Insurance billing is a $20/mo add-on on Practice and Thrive with a separate clearinghouse account, and the BAA is available on request.

Stay with Jane if…

You run a therapy or allied health clinic that wants strong online booking, plus a $15/mo unlimited AI scribe.
