Are you thinking of moving from CHIROSPRING to another practice management alternative? 🤔
This is something everyone has considered at some point.
Whether it's the glitches, the never-ending updates, or the constant need to log in, we have all considered this shift!
So what is the best alternative chiropractic practice management software?
While there are tons of online practice management systems out there to help you out, we will provide you with a list of the top solutions available for chiropractors and healthcare providers alike.
In this article, we'll make a comparison of our top alternatives to give you some alternative software advice.
Before we can get into the alternatives, we need to layout what CHIROSPRING offers so you can compare it with these alternatives.
ChiroSpring aims to help with online scheduling, online intake, records management, inventory management, appointment reminders, SOAP notes, integrated payments, and care plans.
To give you a good idea of its best features, here are CHIROSPRING'S selling points:
- Detailed Forms
- Intuitive Macros
- Responsive Customer Support
So why, with all of these features, are you looking to leave?
Logging In and Out
ChiroSpring appears to present with some real issues around remaining logged in. As a user, constantly being required to log in and out means that you'll waste time and that you may lose precious work in the process.
Updates and Glitching
ChiroSpring has several glitches. This links in with the logging in and out. While we have to give it to them for trying, we don't think practitioners should have to go along for the ride of all the updates as they work through bugs. Maybe ChiroSpring could be someone we could look at coming back to in a few years 🤪
Slow and Cumbersome
After using ChiroSpring for a bit, we think it's too slow. Even on fast internet, we had to wait for the lagging cloud and billing software constantly. Not a hugely attractive feature for any software platform to present with!
CHIROSPRING Pricing
ChiroSpring does offer a limited free version and a standard version for $99 per month.
Top CHIROSPRING Alternatives
What you've been waiting for! Here are our top three CHIROSPRING alternatives:
Carepatron
Designed with the modern practice in mind, Carepatron is a practice management solution that enables Chiropractors, Doctors, Psychologists, Physiotherapists, Nurses, Counselors, and any other allied health or mental health worker to live their best work-life within any medical practice. It works in real-time on any device, anywhere. Including android apps, iPhone, Mac, iPad, and IOS apps, and helps with scheduling client appointments, managing health records, medical billing, appointment management, and payments, and improve patient care worldwide.
Carepatron key features
Here are just a couple of the many reasons why Carepatron is the CHIROSPRING alternative:
1. Scheduling and Workflow manager
Many practice management platforms have basic scheduling tools. Carepatron offers more than that, a complete end-to-end workflow tool, which utilizes cutting-edge technology to automate and optimize what practitioners do, and how they do it.
Here are some of Carepatron's powerful workflow tools:
- Client appointment organizer
- Template library
- The ability to share and manage tasks
- Appointment Scheduling Auto Reminders
- Team Meeting Capabilities
2. Telehealth video calls for free!
Carepatron's telehealth tool will enable you to meet with your clients, team, or groups for free.
Additionally, their video calling quality is superior to others on the market, so you won't have to experience glitches with clients.
3. Voice to text transcription
Need I say more? Who doesn't want to type as fast as they can talk?
Managing Client relationships can be difficult, but with Carepatron, you can directly contact, manage and allocate within their profile. Making everything easier for you and them!
Privacy and confidentiality aren't the sexiest part of software selection, but when it comes to selecting a software management platform for your practice, it's definitely the most important. Carepatron is HIPPA certified, so unlike other software platforms, you can be sure that they'll keep you and your client's details safe.

Carepatron Pricing
Carepatron has a robust free plan for unlimited users with paid versions at just $15 per user/month.
ChiroFusion
ChiroFusion markets itself as being designed as business software for the chiropractor. Still, in terms of the capabilities of SAAS products on the market today, their customization capabilities don't measure up, and ease of use is not improved as much as one might have hoped. Let's just say we can understand why ChiroFusion does not offer a free trial version.
Pros
- Built with chiropractors in mind
- Visually appealing
- Billing capabilities at no additional cost
Cons
- Virtually no ability to customize. Everything in the patient portal and electronic health records or EHR software needs to stay as it is
- Cumbersome workflow tools that will make creating SOAP notes, patient scheduling, invoicing, and electronic medical records slow and frustrating
- No free version (and we know why)
ChiroFusion Pricing
At $99 per month, ChiroFusion should be offering more...
ChiroTouch
While ChiroTouch is a good software solution for chiropractic offices, it isn't perfect as a chiropractic EHR software. There are a number of issues with ChiroTouch, but these are the ones that we (and online user reviews) feel are the most important for small businesses...
Too Many Drop-downs
The biggest we've found with ChiroTouch is the number of drop-downs in their EHR system. If you do any orthopedic testing or e-prescribing, it'll take you a lifetime to enter the information and the client's results. It is not possible to set a default negative and change the positive ones. In addition to this, there is no macro's to put positive results.
Laggy Cloud System
ChiroTouch emr is an all-in-one practice management software, and that's great until it's not...
The cloud system is painfully slow, even on the fastest internet. You'll need to sit and wait for the software system to respond a lot. Not something we can imagine you have time for in the midst of claims management and a soy latte! ☕️
Hidden Costs
ChiroTouch is one of the more expensive EHR software in so far as chiropractic software goes. With ChiroTouch, you'll need to pay additional fees to have access to most of the functionality they appear to possess. Some examples of the things you'll pay extra for are:
- Cloud Backup
- The ability to call for assistance?? Who knew self-service was the new customer service 🥴
- Software Updates
- Electronic Intake Forms
It's all a bit crazy if you ask us...
Client Care
After looking at several client reviews, we've come to realize the issue at the heart of ChiroTouch EMR. After having acquired several smaller businesses, they seem to have lost their care for clients. Rather than working to provide a practice management system that improves the workflow of practitioners and the wellness of client's their main desire is to increase profit margins. That's why you'll get lots of help to sign a contract and outlay costs initially. Still, after that, it appears that the majority of clients get radio silence. As far as chiropractic practice management goes, we think you can do better.
Go on, check in with Carepatron and see where you end up! We don't think you'll be disappointed...
Bottom Line: CHIROSPRING Not the Ever-Choice
While CHIROSPRING is an ok practice management software tool, it has its drawbacks.
The fact that it's been around for a long time doesn't make it the right tool for you.
The practice management solutions mentioned here are the best CHIROSPRING alternatives in the market today.
While there are other paid, free, or open source-based alternatives, that said, a tool like Carepatron is clearly your best option for appointment scheduling, clinical notes note-taking, and online payments. 💪
With clinical templates and a host of other helpful features, you'll find everything you need in one place. Whether on your desktop or mobile device, Carepatron can handle anything you throw its way. 💪
Why not try Carepatron for free today and experience the very best in Chiropractor software?
