Pricing
$1,000a month. No seats, no per-fax fees, no setup cost.
One price for the whole back-office fax workflow at one independent practice. Month to month — leave whenever you like.
per practice, per month
Paid 30-day pilot, refunded if it doesn't pay for itself. 7 days to go-live.
What the price covers
Included, as the actual jobs.
- Reading every fax that arrives — overnight, and again through the day.
- Deciding what each one is: a result, a referral, a prior auth, a records request, junk.
- Matching it to the right patient and filing it to the right place in the chart.
- Texting the person whose job it is, when something needs a decision.
- The paperwork you teach it once — a prior-auth form, a referral packet, a records reply.
- Every run, unmetered. A heavy week costs what a light one costs.
- Everyone on staff. There are no seats to count.
- A setup session for each task, with us on the call.
- Abel repairing its own steps when the EMR moves a button.
Not included, so nobody is surprised later.
- A second location. Each practice is its own $1,000 — no volume discount, and no busy-month surcharge.
- Anything that is not in a browser. Abel works web screens; a desktop-only system is out of scope.
- Talking to patients on the phone.
- Clinical judgment. Abel brings the decision to a person; it does not make one.
- A software project. Abel works the screens you already have; the only install is a browser extension on the computers your staff use.
If something you need is on the second list, say so before you pay us anything. We would rather lose the month than argue about it in week three.
How this compares
Five ways to be billed for the same work.
| Pricing model | You are billed on | A heavy month | Can you budget it? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flat, per practice, per monthAbel · $1,000 | Nothing. One number, whatever arrives. | Costs the same as a quiet one. | One line, known in advance. |
| Per document, or per fax | Every page that comes through the line. | Costs more, exactly when your staff are most stretched. | No — the bill tracks the mail. |
| Per referral, in tiers | Bands of volume, with a price step at each band. | One busy week can move you up a tier for the whole term. | Inside a band, yes. At the edge of one, no. |
| Per physician, per year | The roster, not the work. | Costs the same — and so does a doctor who never uses it. | Yes, but it prices your list of names rather than your workload. |
| Outsourced line items | A share of collections here, an hourly rate there, a per-call fee somewhere else. | Every line moves at once, in different directions. | No — you find out at the end of the month. |
There are no competitors named in that table and no competitor prices in it. We have not been quoted them, so we are not going to print them. Take the two questions in the last columns to whoever you are already paying: what does a heavy month cost, and can you tell me before it happens?
The console
Every run, with the steps it took.
Abel writes down what it did, in order, including the runs where nothing went wrong. When it stops, the reason it stopped is in the same place.
- Opened the fax
- Read it — lab result, addressed to Dr. Whitfield
- Matched the patient in the chart
- Filed it under Labs
- Stopped: the value is out of range, so a person decides
Abel
Lab result filed for a patient of Dr. Whitfield. One value is out of range — do you want it flagged for her today?
Front desk
Yes, and put it on her afternoon list.
Abel
Done. It is on her list for this afternoon.
The terms
Paid 30-day pilot, refunded if it doesn't pay for itself.
You pay for the first month like any other. If, at the end of it, the work Abel did was not worth what you paid, tell us and we send it back. No notice period, and nothing to cancel afterwards.
7 days to go-live.
Not an implementation project. You show Abel a task, it does that task while you watch, you correct what it got wrong — and from then on it is handled. Most of the week is you deciding which task goes first.
We can stand behind a refund because running a task Abel has already learned costs us very little to do again. That is the reason the price is flat, and the reason nobody has to meter your fax line.
Who is using it
One practice. We will say so.
Abel works the back-office fax pile at one independent practice today — every day, not as a pilot programme and not as a design partnership. That is the whole customer list.
When there are ten we will say ten. Until then you have a price you can check, a console you can read, and a month you can leave — which is more than a logo wall would tell you anyway.
Questions
Before you ask us on a call.
- Is $1,000 really the whole bill?
- Yes. No setup fee, no per-seat charge, no per-fax charge, no annual commitment. Month to month, and you can stop at the end of any month.
- What if we get far more faxes than the practice you already work with?
- The price is the same. Volume does not move it. That is the point of a flat number — the month you are drowning is the month a per-document bill charges you the most.
- What does it work with?
- eClinicalWorks today. Abel works the way your staff do: signed in, in a browser, clicking the same screens — so a web-based EMR is in scope. If yours is web-based and is not eClinicalWorks, ask, and we will tell you plainly whether we can and when.
- What happens when it is not sure?
- It stops and texts a person. It does not guess. That task falls back to your staff exactly as it would have without Abel, and the reason it stopped is in the console.
- How do we know what it did?
- The console. Every run, the steps in order, and what it changed — including the runs where nothing went wrong.
One price, one practice, one month at a time.
