Pricing Details
athenahealth uses a unique percentage-of-collections pricing model rather than per-provider-per-month fees. Typical rates range from 4-8% of net collections depending on specialty, volume, and services selected. This aligns athenahealth's incentives with practice revenue. Implementation fees may apply. Multi-year contracts are standard.
Pricing starts around $600/month and can reach $10,000/month depending on organization size. Per-provider approximately $200-$700/provider/month plus setup and migration. Multiple subscription tiers: base, billing, EMR, plus per-item fees for claims, ERAs, and reminder texts. A 400-patient practice averages ~$10,000/month for full stack.
