A practice day in Cima

Follow one made-up client from booking online to a paid claim, then see the practice's numbers. 11 steps.

  1. Step 1 of 11

    Clients book online

    Your booking page shows your open hours. A new client picks a time on their phone, adds their details and insurance, and sends the request. No account, no app.

  2. Step 2 of 11

    Accept the request

    The request waits on Today. One click books the visit, confirms it by text and email, and sends a new client their paperwork.

    Open the full-size screen
  3. The client's forms on a phone: PHQ-9 questions with answers picked

    Step 3 of 11

    Paperwork before they walk in

    Their link opens on the phone. They confirm their details, answer the PHQ-9 and GAD-7, and sign the consents with a finger.

  4. Step 4 of 11

    Notes to write

    Today lists every past visit without a signed note, so nothing slips. Open one to start.

    Open the full-size screen
  5. Step 5 of 11

    The note opens filled in

    The visit's date, time and length are already there, and the billing code is picked from the session length. It tells you what's missing before you sign.

  6. Step 6 of 11

    Sign with your PIN

    Your PIN confirms it's you. Signed means locked; any correction is a dated addendum.

    Open the full-size screen
  7. A claim opened over the billing screen, listing what to fix before it can be sent

    Step 7 of 11

    Claims, checked before they go

    Signing the note created the claim. Each one is checked first; a claim that needs a fix says what's missing, in plain words.

    Open the full-size screen
  8. Step 8 of 11

    Send them all at once

    Ready claims go to the clearinghouse in one click. You see when the payer accepts them.

    Open the full-size screen
  9. Step 9 of 11

    Payments post themselves

    When the payer pays, Check for payments reads the remittance and posts each payment, adjustment and copay to the right claim.

    Open the full-size screen
  10. A paid claim for the made-up client, with the insurance payment and adjustment posted

    Step 10 of 11

    Paid, to the cent

    Each claim shows what insurance paid, the adjustment and the client's share, straight from the payer's remittance.

    Open the full-size screen
  11. Reports: visits and no-shows, notes signed on time, and money owed, as charts

    Step 11 of 11

    Your practice at a glance

An IOP or PHP program in Cima

A made-up program's week: group notes, hours against each level of care, authorizations and per diem billing. 8 steps.

  1. Step 1 of 8

    The day's groups

    Each group on the schedule, with its levels of care, leader and clients. Start the notes for one.

    Open the full-size screen
  2. Step 2 of 8

    One summary, each client's own entry

    Write what the group covered once. Each client gets their own attendance, participation and response, tied to a treatment plan goal.

    Open the full-size screen
  3. The attendance grid: each client's level of care and hours per day for the week

    Step 3 of 8

    Hours against each level of care

    Hours come from signed group notes and individual sessions. Green means the day meets its level's hours; you see who's short before the week ends.

    Open the full-size screen
  4. A made-up client's chart in the program: insurance, authorization with days left, and diagnosis

    Step 4 of 8

    The authorization, on the chart

    Each client's chart shows their level of care, diagnosis and how many authorized days are left.

    Open the full-size screen
  5. Step 5 of 8

    Continued-stay reviews, before the auth ends

    Today lists every authorization ending soon, so the review is written in time to ask for more days.

    Open the full-size screen
  6. A continued-stay review note opened for the made-up client

    Step 6 of 8

    The review, started for you

    It asks what payers ask: the request, the days, progress, symptoms, the six ASAM dimensions and the step-down plan. It lists what's left before you sign.

    Open the full-size screen
  7. Step 7 of 8

    Per diem billing from attendance

    Each program day becomes a charge with the right code for its level, checked against the hours and the authorization.

    Open the full-size screen
  8. Step 8 of 8

    Then send them

    The day charges join the ready claims. Send them all to the clearinghouse in one click, and post payments when they come back.
