Rhapsody vs. Cloverleaf 

Rhapsody Integration Solutions are a trusted, modern alternative to Cloverleaf – with best in KLAS® support and flexible deployment options built for healthcare integration at scale.

For decades, Cloverleaf has been a go-to engine for healthcare integration, particularly in large health systems. But today’s demands are different – between cloud migrations, and the need for modern and scalable solutions many teams are reevaluating their approach to integration. Rhapsody is the next logical step.

The Rhapsody platform, including Rhapsody and Corepoint, is purpose-built for healthcare and meets your team where they are, combining flexible deployment, scalability, and expert support. Rhapsody is trusted by 1,700+ healthcare organizations, including top IDNs, public health agencies, and digital health innovators.

Cloverleaf

Long and tedious process for migrations to the cloud  

❌ Insufficient support model for urgent needs 

❌ Encourages cloud migration, often at higher cost 

❌ Legacy integration engine with limited innovation and improvement 

❌ Fees increase based on cores, usage, and deployment model. Expensive to scale; limited tooling means more staff time required 

❌ Few formal training resources 

❌ Requires team with specialized Tcl scripting experience; Hard to hire for with a steep learning curve 

❌ Requires more cores and servers to scale, increasing cost and complexity 

❌ Limited native visibility; relies on third-party tools 

❌ Limited without 3rd-party tools 

❌ No version control; live runtime testing only

Cloverleaf has served the industry well. But as demands evolve, it’s showing its age. Hospitals and health systems report frustration with: 

  • Forced cloud migrations with long project times unclear pricing 
  • Ongoing Tcl reliance creating staffing bottlenecks 
  • Support delays and inconsistent relationships
  • Licensing fees that escalate as infrastructure grows 
  • Limited monitoring and testing tools
