Halaxy

Halaxy is web-based practice management software for healthcare practices, combining appointment scheduling, patient records, invoicing and financial reporting. It suits practices that want broad capacity for clinicians and appointments, with clinical and administrative basics in one system.

Overview

Founded in Melbourne in 2012, Halaxy is designed for more than 90 healthcare professions and practices of different sizes. Its free core brings together a calendar, online bookings, patient records, clinical notes, invoicing and financial reports. That combination can reduce the need to split everyday practice work across separate tools, while unlimited appointments, practitioners, locations and file storage leave room for a practice to grow.

The free foundation has meaningful boundaries. Optional add-ons use credits, and subscription features start at 25 credits per month. Practices should check whether the capabilities they rely on are part of the core or require extra credits before building their workflow around the no-cost plan.

Key features

The calendar accommodates recurring, group, telehealth and home-visit appointments. Online bookings, digital intake forms, waitlist management and email reminders support the booking process; automated SMS reminders are also available. These tools make Halaxy a strong fit for practices managing varied appointment types, though SMS and other optional add-ons can bring credit costs.

Patient records, clinical notes, invoicing and financial reports cover core clinical and administrative tasks. Built-in video and phone consultations extend that workflow to telehealth, and Halaxy can connect to external services such as Zoom and Coviu. Telehealth is offered as an add-on, so practices should account for that cost if remote consultations are central to their service.

Connections include accounting tools such as Xero, QuickBooks and Reckon One, as well as services for payments, health information exchange, marketing and exercise programs. An API lets developers connect other software and send or retrieve practice data, but access to the Halaxy API is among the subscription features. That makes the integration options useful for practices with established systems, while custom connections may require a paid subscription.

Halaxy says it backs up data daily, encrypts it at rest and in transit, and stores it in Australia or the EU depending on the user's location. Its security controls include two-factor authentication, configurable access levels, action history and anonymisation. Halaxy also says telehealth calls use AES 256-bit encryption in transit, are not recorded and do not pass through Halaxy servers. Phone customer service is available 24 hours a day, Monday to Friday.

Pricing

Halaxy core platform — free. The free plan has no sign-up costs or credit-card requirement and includes unlimited appointments, practitioners, locations and file storage. It is the clearest choice for practices seeking a full-capacity starting system, although optional capabilities sit outside this core.

Subscription features — A$25 a month. This is a starting rate of 25 credits per month for optional features including two-way calendar sync, white-label branding, e-script integrations, the Halaxy API and a dedicated practice phone number. It fits practices that need one or more of those capabilities; the starting credit amount means the actual feature mix matters when budgeting.

Pay-as-you-go credits — pay as you go. Practices pay for credits used on optional add-ons such as SMS, funding-body rebates, e-scripts, telehealth, secure messaging and AI Scribe. This can suit teams that want occasional extras without a subscription, but costs depend on usage. White Label subscription tiers include a 30-day free trial.

Platforms

Halaxy is available on the web. Practices seeking a dedicated mobile, desktop or other platform should account for its web-only availability when choosing a system.

Who it's for

Halaxy is a good fit for healthcare practices that want bookings, records, clinical notes, invoicing and financial reporting under one roof, especially those with multiple practitioners or locations. Its broad profession coverage and appointment types also suit teams handling group sessions, home visits and telehealth. It is less suitable for a practice that needs optional features such as API access or telehealth but cannot accommodate credit-based or subscription charges.

Pros and cons

• Pro: The free core allows unlimited appointments, practitioners, locations and file storage, so capacity does not hinge on a small seat or storage cap.
• Pro: Scheduling, patient records, clinical notes, invoicing and reporting are included together, giving practices a broad base for daily operations.
• Pro: Recurring, group, home-visit and telehealth appointments support varied care models, with online booking, intake forms, waitlists and reminders.
• Con: Optional features use credits, and subscription features start at 25 credits per month; the free core may not cover every practice's workflow.
• Con: The platform is web-only, which may not suit teams that require a dedicated mobile or desktop app.

Alternatives

Carepatron is another freemium option, with a free plan that caps usage at 100 appointments, 1GB of storage, 1K tasks and 1M AI tokens; choose it if its Android, iOS, macOS or API availability matters more than Halaxy's unlimited core appointments and storage.

Practice Better has a free Sprout plan limited to 3 active clients, 100 MB of storage and 1 practitioner license. It may suit a solo practitioner comfortable with those caps, while Halaxy offers more room for teams on its free core.

Latrexa offers a free plan for one doctor and a Starter plan for up to two doctors at ₹499 a month; consider it if those smaller team limits fit your needs.

Sessions Health has a free plan capped at 3 clients and 1 practitioner, with no administrators. It is an option for a small practice that can work within those limits.

GoCliniq offers a free booking plan with unlimited online bookings for one clinic, one doctor and one staff login. Choose it when booking capacity is the priority and those account limits are sufficient.

MocDoc is another healthcare software option with custom pricing.

NexHealth offers a usage-based API plan at $0.10 a month, charging $0.10 per API call, with 10K free API calls and 10K free webhooks per month plus a free sandbox. It is worth considering when an API-focused, usage-based setup fits better than Halaxy's practice-management core.

75Health (HealthEMR) is a paid alternative with a Basic plan at ₹1,500 a month per user for small and medium clinics.

Verdict

Choose Halaxy if your practice wants a broad, no-cost core for bookings, patient records, invoicing and reporting, with generous practitioner, appointment, location and storage capacity. Its mix of appointment workflows and clinical administration is the main reason to choose it. Look elsewhere if you need optional subscription capabilities or credit-based add-ons but want predictable costs without those extras.
