Transparent, Straightforward Pricing​

Collaboration plans start at $675 per month
One-time $750 setup fee.

This upfront investment isn’t arbitrary — it’s what allows us to properly structure your collaboration, complete state-specific compliance checks, formalize agreements, and ensure the physician has the tools and support they need to oversee your clinic safely and legally.

Clinics should be cautious of companies that charge no setup fee or require no upfront work.​

In many cases, that means they’re skipping essential compliance steps, using handshake-style arrangements, or failing to build the infrastructure required to keep both the NP and the physician protected long-term. When those shortcuts are exposed in a board review or audit, the clinic — not the vendor — is the one left vulnerable.

We believe the best way to support the NP or clinic is to properly support the physician. When physicians have strong oversight processes, documentation workflows, and clear regulatory guidance, everyone stays compliant.

Our setup fee ensures the relationship is built correctly from day one — and we stand by that. If your clinic ever faces a board audit or compliance inquiry, we actively support you and the physician with documentation, policies, and the regulatory clarity needed to navigate it confidently.
