Practice Builder Works Alongside Your EHR
Quick answer
Does Practice Builder work with my EHR?
Yes. Practice Builder works alongside the EHR you already use, including ChARM, Practice Better, Jane, and SimplePractice. Your EHR keeps handling charting, prescriptions, and billing, while Practice Builder handles marketing, lead capture, follow-up, and reactivation. There is no data sync between them. Plans start at $199 a month plus a one-time setup fee.

What an EHR Does Versus What Practice Builder Does
An EHR and Practice Builder do different jobs, and that is exactly why they work so well together. Your EHR is built to manage the clinical side of your practice: charting visits, writing prescriptions, ordering labs, billing insurance, and keeping the medical record. It organizes care that is already happening.
Practice Builder is built to manage the growth side: capturing leads, answering missed calls, following up automatically, and reactivating patients who stopped coming. It handles everything that happens before someone becomes a patient, and everything that brings them back.
Running both together gives a holistic practice the best of both worlds. Your EHR is the clinical home for patient records, and Practice Builder is the engine that fills the calendar that feeds it. Neither tool tries to do the other's job.
| Your EHR | Practice Builder |
|---|---|
| Charting and clinical notes | Missed-call text-back and AI answering |
| Prescriptions and lab orders | Leads captured from your website, ads, and phone |
| Insurance billing and claims | A visual pipeline from inquiry to booked consult |
| The medical record | Automated follow-up until they book |
| Appointment scheduling | Reactivation campaigns for lapsed patients |
| Review requests, landing pages, and campaigns |
Keep Your EHR, Add the Growth Layer
Most holistic practices already have an EHR they trust for clinical work, and they should keep it. Practice Builder is not asking you to switch systems or rebuild your clinical workflow. It is asking you to add the one thing your EHR was never built to do: fill the calendar.
Practices keep their EHR, for example ChARM, Practice Better, Jane, or SimplePractice, and add Practice Builder for marketing and follow-up. The two tools run side by side. Your EHR continues to handle the visit, and Practice Builder handles the conversation that leads to the visit.
This layered approach means you do not have to compromise. You get a strong clinical home and a dedicated growth engine, each doing what it is best at, without forcing one tool to do a job it was never designed for.
No Data Sync, by Design
Practice Builder does not integrate with or sync data to any EHR. There is no connection between the two systems, which keeps things simple and avoids the complexity and risk of moving clinical data between platforms.
Your EHR stays the single source of truth for medical records, charting, and billing. Practice Builder stays the single source of truth for leads, conversations, and reactivation. Each tool owns its own data, and your team uses each one for its purpose.
This separation is a feature, not a limitation. It means you can adopt Practice Builder without touching your clinical setup, and you can change either tool in the future without disrupting the other. The growth layer and the clinical layer stay independent by design.
How Practices Use Both Together
In a typical day, a new patient calls your clinic. If you miss the call, Practice Builder sends an automatic text-back and captures the lead in its pipeline. Your team follows up, answers questions, and books the consultation, all inside Practice Builder.
When the patient arrives, your EHR takes over for the clinical visit: charting, notes, and any billing. After the visit, Practice Builder sends a review request and, weeks later, a reactivation message if the patient has not returned. The two tools pass the patient along the journey without needing to talk to each other.
That handoff is what makes the combination so effective. Practice Builder fills the top of the funnel and keeps patients coming back, and your EHR handles the care in between. Together they cover the full lifecycle from first inquiry to long-term retention.
