The short answer

Yes. Doxy.me offers a Free plan for basic one-to-one video appointments, with a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) available at no extra cost. The Premium plan adds clearer video quality, Scribe for automatic transcription and draft notes, and more tools for delivering care.

02

Is the Free plan HIPAA-compliant?

Yes. HIPAA-compliant video appointments and a BAA are available on Free and Premium plans. You don’t need to upgrade to get a BAA.

The Premium plan expands your care tools and workflow options. The Free plan still includes the core protections needed for doxy.me’s telehealth service.

Your practice remains responsible for its own privacy and security safeguards. The Doxy.me Trust Center provides more information about the platform’s security.


03

Why does doxy.me offer a Free plan?

Cost shouldn’t prevent a provider from offering a basic telehealth option.

Free keeps that option available for providers who are getting started, use telehealth occasionally, or can’t take on another subscription. The Premium plan subscription helps support that access while giving providers more capable tools for their work.

Less manual note-taking with Scribe

Scribe automatically transcribes your session and creates draft clinical notes, helping you keep your attention on the patient instead of trying to capture every detail as you talk.

After the appointment, you can review and edit the draft before adding it to your patient’s record. You remain in control of the final documentation.

For a provider seeing patients throughout the day, that’s a meaningful step beyond a basic video connection. Learn more about Scribe’s automatic notes and session summaries.

These benefits apply to solo providers as well as clinics. You don’t need a large team to benefit from telehealth tools that help you work more actively with patients and run your practice smoothly.

Which plan should you choose?

If you only need a basic one-to-one video connection, the Free plan can be a starting point.

If telehealth is a part of your practice, consider what would make those appointments better: clearer video, less manual note-taking, and more ways to engage patients. Those are the reasons to look at the Premium plan - even if you work on your own.
