Abridge Cost Tuning

Overview

Abridge pricing is enterprise, sales-led, and per-provider. Cost optimization focuses on maximizing provider adoption (to justify per-provider cost), reducing wasted sessions, and choosing the right tier for your org size.

Pricing Model (Enterprise)

Factor	Impact	Optimization Lever
Provider count	Primary cost driver	Only enroll active providers
EHR depth	Integration complexity premium	Start with basic, upgrade incrementally
Specialty count	Some specialties cost more	Phase specialty rollout
Session volume	Included in per-provider pricing	No per-session cost concern
Patient summaries	May be add-on	Enable only for portal-integrated sites
Languages	Included (28+ languages)	No incremental cost

Instructions

Step 1: Provider Utilization Tracking

// src/cost/provider-utilization.ts
interface ProviderUsage {
  providerId: string;
  enrolledDate: Date;
  sessionsThisMonth: number;
  lastSessionDate: Date | null;
  adoptionStatus: 'active' | 'low_usage' | 'dormant' | 'never_used';
}

function classifyProviderUsage(provider: ProviderUsage): string {
  if (provider.sessionsThisMonth === 0 && !provider.lastSessionDate)  ;
   (provider. === )  ;

   daysSinceEnrolled = (.() - provider..()) / ;
   sessionsPerDay = provider. / .(daysSinceEnrolled, );

   (sessionsPerDay < )  ;
   ;
}

 (): {
  : ;
  : ;
  : ;
  : ;
  : ;
  : ;
} {
   classified = providers.( ({ ...p, : (p) }));

   active = classified.( p. === ).;
   lowUsage = classified.( p. === ).;
   dormant = classified.( p. === ).;
   neverUsed = classified.( p. === ).;
   wastedPercent = ((dormant + neverUsed) / providers. * ).();

   {
    : providers.,
    active,
    lowUsage,
    dormant,
    neverUsed,
    : ,
  };
}
