20% Price Increase for Annual Maintenance and New Licenses Coming Soon
For the first time in nearly three years, Amazing Charts must raise prices for a clinician license and annual maintenance (Guardian Angel Support).
Effective January 1, 2014, the one-time cost of an Amazing Charts EHR license will be $1200 per clinician. Effective February 1, 2014, the annual maintenance fee will be $1195 per license, starting on your renewal date.
While price increases are never good news, we want to help you better understand why the price must go up. A significant portion of your annual maintenance dollars goes to entities other than Amazing Charts. These include:
The American Medical Association for licensing CPT codes
Microsoft and other companies for licensing essential software code
Newcrop and Surescripts for eRX services
Direct Messaging partners (for MU2)
Patient portal and patient content partners (for MU2)
Immunization registries (for MU2)
As you can see, many of these cost are government mandated and beyond our control. Even at $1195, annual maintenance works to just $3.27 per day. Many of us spend more on a cup of coffee every morning. And even after this price increase, Amazing Charts is still the most affordable and usable EHR solution for small pratices.
If you have any questions or concerns about this price increase, simply reply to this email.
Thank you,
John Squire
