Cima Quick VOB

Quick VOB, for treatment center admissions

Verify benefits before the caller hangs up.

Snap the insurance card. In about a minute you see whether coverage is active, how much deductible and out-of-pocket is left, coinsurance, copay and prior auth for substance use and mental health care. Log the call by level of care, track every authorization, and keep your own EHR.

$99/month, checks at cost (about 30¢), $200 one-time setup. 30 days free, unlimited users.

From the first call to the authorization

1

Snap the card

Front and back, on any phone. The name, member ID, group and insurance company fill in, and the right payer is picked. No typing a 12-character member ID.

2

See the answer

Active or not, plan dates, deductible and out-of-pocket left with how much is used, coinsurance, copay and prior auth, at a glance. Carve-outs (Magellan, Optum, Carelon) are flagged, with their check one tap away.

3

Call, then track

Log what the rep said for detox, residential, PHP, IOP and OP, with their name and reference number. Add the authorization; we email you 5 days before it ends.

Every level of care

One grid shows what's covered and what needs an auth at each level, from the call or the authorization, and marks what still needs a call.

No lost authorizations

Open authorizations listed by last day, extensions in two taps, and a reminder before each one ends, in time to ask for a continued stay.

Plain-English problems

Narrow-network plans, payers that won't answer for your provider type, a wrong member ID: each says what it means and what to do next.

A VOB for the chart

A clean PDF with the benefits, the call and the authorizations, or one tap to copy it into your EHR's VOB note.

Built for HIPAA and Part 2

A Business Associate Agreement with you, every look logged, two-step sign-in, and card reading on AWS under our BAA.

Made by a treatment center

Built with, and used by, an IOP/PHP program's own admissions team, for the calls that come in at 9 PM on a Friday.

One price, the whole team

Outsourced VOBs take hours to days. VOB software for treatment centers usually runs $250 to $600 a month, plus setup.

Questions

Do we have to switch EHRs? No. Quick VOB works on its own next to Kipu, Sunwave, Lightning Step, Navix or anything else. If you ever want a full EHR, the same account grows into Cima.

Does it replace calling the payer? It answers the money questions in seconds. Payers rarely send level-of-care details (PHP or IOP days, precert) electronically, so Quick VOB shows exactly what still needs the call and keeps what the rep said.

What does a check cost? What our clearinghouse charges us, about 30¢, added to your monthly bill. When a payer is silent on the first question we ask a second way, which counts as a second check.

Is it HIPAA compliant? Yes. We sign a Business Associate Agreement with you, card reading runs on AWS under our BAA, and the clearinghouse signs one with us. Every view of a check is logged.

What's the setup fee for? We connect your organization's NPI and taxonomy, run your first checks with you, and set up your team.

Your next admission, verified before they hang up.

Free for 30 days. No card needed to start.
