Start by assessing whether you need a full-service practice management company like ENT Partners (at 6-8% of gross revenue) or a standalone EHR vendor (at $140-$400 per provider per month), then verify their track record with multi-site specialty practice transitions and their ability to maintain revenue cycle continuity during the integration period.
