DrChrono: sovereignty score and 8 European alternatives

DrChrono is a cloud-based system for electronic health records, practice management and billing. The provider is EverHealth Solutions Inc., doing business as DrChrono. The suite includes a mobile EHR with speech-to-text, appointment scheduling with reminders, insurance eligibility checks, telehealth, a patient portal and claims management with its own clearinghouse. It is aimed at healthcare practices and delivered as a subscription service.

DrChrono is a US company and, according to press releases, has belonged to the likewise US-based EverCommerce since 2021. The privacy policy states that the service is intended for use in the United States only, that data is maintained in the United States and that users from outside the US consent to transfer there. The GDPR is not mentioned. For a European healthcare provider the product is therefore not a natural choice: patient data is subject to US law, including the CLOUD Act, and no European data location is offered.

Why digital sovereignty matters with DrChrono

DrChrono is headquartered in the United States. US vendors fall under the CLOUD Act and FISA 702: US authorities can compel access to data, even when that data sits in a European data centre. That is the core of the jurisdictional exposure in our model.

DrChrono hosts data outside the EU (US). Personal data therefore leaves the EU, which requires a transfer mechanism under the GDPR and pulls the data residency score down.

DrChrono is closed source and hosted by the vendor. The encryption keys and the runtime sit with the vendor and switching requires data migration. Ask about bring-your-own-key, export options and open standards.

What this means for your organisation depends on your whole stack and context. The free assessment weighs DrChrono together with your other vendors and gives a total score, a heatmap and the main risk drivers.
