drchrono MCP connector

The drchrono connector brings day sheet charges, claim billing notes, signed consent forms, lab orders and clinical notes into Elaichi, so Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and the Elaichi Agent can work with them inside each person's own drchrono access.

  • How it connects. Connects over OAuth. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect drchrono to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

Two steps, about a minute.

1

In Elaichi

Connect drchrono once

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick drchrono.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Supply your own drchrono app, then approve. drchrono needs an OAuth app you register yourself, so bring its client ID and secret. One person does this once for the organization.

The credential is vaulted. Nobody reads it back, not even the AI.

Use cases

What teams do with drchrono through Elaichi

Every one of these runs inside the access the person already has, and lands in the same audit log.

  • Billing

    Review the day sheet before claims go out

    Pull the day's charges from drchrono and ask which ones still need a claim billing note before the batch is submitted. Add the missing notes from the same conversation.

  • Billing

    Document a claim without opening the chart

    Add a claim billing note in drchrono after a payer call, with the reference number and what was agreed, so the next person working the claim sees the history.

  • Front desk

    Check consent forms ahead of tomorrow's visits

    List the signed consent forms on file in drchrono and spot the new patients who have not signed yet, then record a signed form as soon as it comes in.

  • Clinical

    Place and update lab orders after a visit

    Create a lab order in drchrono while the patient is still in the room, then update it or cancel it later if the plan changes.

  • Nursing

    Look up custom vitals captured at intake

    Ask for the custom vitals recorded in drchrono for a patient so the clinician has the readings in front of them without scrolling through the chart.

  • Practice management

    Keep appointment fields consistent across the practice

    List the custom appointment fields set up in drchrono, add a new one for a referral source or visit reason, and tidy the ones that no longer match how the front desk books.

Try asking

  • “List today's day sheet charges that still need a claim billing note”
  • “Create a lab order for this afternoon's patient and confirm the sublab”
  • “Which signed consent forms are missing for tomorrow's new patients?”

A person no longer has to ask. A trigger starts the work, inside the same permissions and the same audit log as everything else. Automations and live dashboards are launching soon, on the Black plan.

Automations

A schedule drafts the day sheet digest.

Day sheet charges are fetched, grouped and drafted, a person approves, and it posts to drchrono.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect drchrono to Claude?

First connect drchrono in Elaichi: drchrono asks you to register an OAuth application inside your drchrono account, so one person brings that client ID and secret once, then signs in to drchrono as themselves. After that nobody else on the team handles a client ID or secret again. Then open Claude, go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Claude asks you to sign in to Elaichi and drchrono is ready to use.

Does drchrono work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once drchrono is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client and the Elaichi Agent. You connect drchrono once and every client picks it up.

What can an AI agent actually do with my drchrono data?

It can list the day sheet charges for a date, read and add claim billing notes, check which signed consent forms are on file, create, update or cancel lab orders, read clinical notes lists and look up custom vitals and custom appointment fields in drchrono. Short, concrete asks work best, such as asking for today's charges without a billing note rather than a long paragraph. Everything it does runs as the person who signed in to drchrono.

Does connecting drchrono give the AI access to every patient and every chart?

No. Every request to drchrono runs with the access of the person who signed in, so the AI sees the practices, patients and records that person can already open in drchrono and nothing more. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions, and it can never widen it beyond what drchrono itself allows that person.

Can my team share one drchrono connection?

Yes. One person connects drchrono in Elaichi and shares it with a team, and nobody else ever handles the drchrono client ID or secret. Each teammate still signs in to drchrono as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person behind every lab order or billing note.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in drchrono?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi work per action, so you can allow reading lab orders in drchrono while blocking the ones that update or delete them. A restricted action is left out of what the AI client can call, so it cannot be used however the prompt is worded.

What happens to a drchrono connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to drchrono through every client at once. A shared drchrono connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want drchrono gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor and every other client.

Does the drchrono MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. drchrono is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for drchrono?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use drchrono. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every drchrono call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for drchrono?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to drchrono: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
