User Testimonials
Kareo EHRNueMD
Likelihood to Recommend
Tebra Technologies, Inc (Kareo + PatientPop)
Kareo is not an appropriate application for any real-world clinical need. It is highly unreliable, crashing frequently, and often becomes frozen. It also cannot ingest data from Therapy Notes, which was a promised feature of the platform according to the sales team. Additionally, when we ran into reliability issues (every day, with every clinician at the practice, across a dozen different office locations with different internet service providers) we were not offered the ability to cancel our contract. Until the reliability issues are fixed Kareo is not well-suited to any use case because it does not work.

Once the initial transition was complete, the software has been easy to work with and efficient. Payments are coming in quickly and we can identify errors in billing before submission making the process smooth.

Kareo was a massive waste of money. It's an unreliable product without promised features and sold by a disingenuous sales team. We will stick to reliable services like Doxy, Therapy Notes, etc.

I selected Kareo EHR because it was a lot simpler to use and the customer service was definitely better. Every representative I have spoken to has been super friendly and helpful.

Overall NUEMD is easy to use self explanatory and realtime helps alot when were are busy checking in patients, it gives you messages letting you know when something isnt right and that makes the claim we send out to the ins company cleaner to the return on payments from the ins co is better

Return on Investment
Tebra Technologies, Inc (Kareo + PatientPop)
  • We have negative reviews as we were sold a product that left out some key variables. Things we really needed to make the transition.
  • I don't think KAREO is good for small business (0-10 employees) because their prices for additional or standard features is steep. They charge by the therapist to boot and it is steep!
  • Again ASK questions; do a test run; ask about the migration of your data and its charges.
  • You sign with them you will be locked into a 12 month contract with no out clause. If they are costing you the money you have to stay with them.
