- Best For: Large healthcare systems, hospitals, or practices with highly specific feature requirements.
- Semi-Custom Websites (PLATINUM/PLATINUM+ Service): These sites use A/B-tested, conversion-optimized frameworks that are customized with your practice’s branding. Custom content is added for SEO and Infographics are also included.

Why is custom package more expensive than standard PLATINUM package?
The Full Custom package is significantly more expensive than the Standard PLATINUM package primarily because it involves manual, bespoke labor versus an automated, pre-optimized system. While the PLATINUM package is a “semi-custom” solution built for high ROI and high conversion efficiency, the Custom Service functions like a boutique marketing agency.
Primary Reasons for Higher Costs
- Manual Labor & BESPOKE Design: Unlike PLATINUM sites which use A/B tested frameworks, custom sites are built from scratch. This requires specialized graphic designers, developers, and project managers to create unique visual and structural elements specifically for your brand.
- Extended Timelines: PLATINUM sites can often be deployed in roughly 30 days because they use established work-flows. Custom solutions frequently take several months due to iterative design changes and complex, non-standard feature requests.
- Technical Access & Control: The PLATINUM tier restricts certain changes (like moving logos or changing core CTA placements) to maintain site performance and HIPAA security. The Custom tier grants full creative and technical control, requiring more intensive developer-level support.
- Fragmentation & Integration Risks: Custom builds often involve integrating multiple third-party plugins and vendors. Managing these separate components increases the risk of “HIPAA leakage“—security gaps between disconnected systems—which requires more rigorous manual oversight to prevent.
Comparative Cost Breakdown
| Feature | Standard PLATINUM Service | Custom Marketing Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Upfront Setup Fee | $0 (with 12-month contract) | $6,000 – $15,000+ |
| Monthly Fee | Starts around $1,399/mo | $3,000 – $10,000+/mo |
| Primary Focus | Conversion ROI & Automation | Unique Branding & Total Control |
| HIPAA and PHI | Tightly controlled | Potential of HIPAA and PHI leakage is high |
| Best For | 90% of healthcare practices | Large enterprises or unique needs |
According to PatientGain data, standard PLATINUM sites often see higher conversion rates (10–15%+) than custom builds (2–4%) because they rely on data-driven optimization rather than a designer’s “gut feel”.
