FAQ
Will this work with my specific EHR like ChiroTouch or Jane App?
Yes. We specialize in integrating the most common chiropractic software. Whether it's embedding a Jane App booking widget or setting up secure data transfers for ChiroTouch, we ensure your website and office software talk to each other to reduce manual data entry.
Is the website truly HIPAA compliant?
Absolutely. We use encrypted form handling, secure hosting environments, and provide a Business Associate Agreement (BAA). We ensure that any Patient Health Information (PHI) captured on the site is handled according to federal regulations.
How much work is required from my staff during the build?
We handle the heavy lifting. Your staff will need about 2-3 hours total across the 6-week period for the initial discovery call, content review, and a final training session on how to manage new leads.
Can you help move my content from an old site?
Yes, we include content migration in our setup. We will audit your existing site, move over high-performing blog posts and patient education materials, and optimize them for the new design and SEO standards.
Does the website include a way for patients to pay their bills?
Yes. We can integrate your EHR's patient portal directly into the site or set up secure payment links through providers like Stripe or Square, depending on how your practice handles billing.
