Luminello vs Generic EMRs
Generic EMRs
- Aim to serve as large a market for physicians as possible, thereby leading to overwhelming, crowded screens and inefficient workflows (“click click click click…”).
- There are no free versions on the market.
- Some make money by selling ads to you while you use it, and charging high markups for add-ons, such as insurance claim processing.
- Most require a long-term contract.
- Some limit e-prescribe controlled substances to certain states.
- To reduce costs, most don’t invest heavily in customer service – which is why it can take days to weeks to hear back from them when you have a question
- Some have unclear policies about what they do with non-anonymized patient data.
Luminello
- Is focused on serving the needs of psychiatrists, therapists, and allied health and wellness clinicians exclusively – Luminello is designed by and for them, and therefore has just what you need, but no unnecessary features.

Luminello vs Other EMRs for Therapists
Luminello is not the same as other mental health EMRs. We treat pricing, customer service and user-experience just as seriously as developing a wide range of powerful features.
Other Mental Health EMRs
- Screens are often “clunky” and “not intuitive.”
- Some don’t embrace a “do everything for the customer as fast as possible” customer service philosophy.
- Most have pricing and terms that are not as favorable as Luminello’s.
- None offer a free-for-life plan.
Luminello
- Built to be simple, following our core tenant to be user-friendly – and reinforced daily by our founders (a psychiatrist and a designer).
- Gives you a free public profile.
- Allows you to pre-screen potential new patients/clients before you communicate with them.
- Will never make you sign a long-term contract.
- Is invested in your success, and so we invest heavily in customer service. We respond to you within hours, not days.
- Has a free plan that you can use for as long as you like, until you decide to add premium features.
- Is not funded by venture capital or run by a major corporation, so we have 100% control over the features we offer and rates we charge.
- And, our founder uses Luminello every day!

This is the first out of many EMRs I’ve tried that is intuitive to use and has the features I need without the unwieldly bulk that I don’t. I love using Luminello.
