- 100% completion rate for inpatient intake assessments
- 75% reduction in administrative time per assessment
- Direct migration from paper-based legacy forms
- Enhanced detection of secondary clinical indicators
Why Teams Adopted
- Elimination of manual score tallying and arithmetic errors
- Scored symptom severity visible before the first session
- Ability to track outcome measures (PHQ-9, GAD-7) session-by-session
- Improved patient compliance via secure mobile links and QR codes
- Centralized visibility for clinical supervisors across multiple sites

Why measurement-based care?
For CATC, high-fidelity measurement-based care was the only way to keep clinical quality consistent across more than 80 sites. Standardized scales, automated delivery, and a shared dashboard gave every clinician the same view of patient progress.
Zero-friction intake
By replacing lengthy, inconsistent paper packets with structured digital scales, intake completes in a fraction of the time and reaches every patient.
Real-time outcome tracking
Clinicians no longer wait for scoring sheets to be tallied. PHQ-9, GAD-7 and other scales render the moment a patient submits.
Interdisciplinary alignment
Standardized data ensures that nursing, addictions counsellors, psychiatry and case management read the same scores in the same format.
Fidelity to evidence
Digital scoring maintains strict adherence to validated thresholds, removing the human variance that drifts paper-based programs.
"HiBoop has completely transformed our intake. We now see scored results in minutes instead of hours, and our clinical team works from the same picture across every site."
Melanie MatthewsCEO, Canadian Addiction Treatment Centres (CATC)"The ability to track outcome scores session by session, across our network, has made measurement-based care a daily clinical habit rather than a quarterly chart review."

Implementation journey
Discovery assessment
Analyzed CATC's legacy paper-based intake to map every scale and clinical workflow before configuration.
Bespoke implementation
Mapped all CATC assessments into HiBoop with site-specific cohort definitions, alert thresholds, and reporting views.
Clinician onboarding
Delivered targeted training sessions to intake nurses, counsellors, and supervisors so the team adopted the workflow within a single cycle.
Active deployment
Phased rollout across inpatient and continuing-care sites with weekly check-ins to refine alerts and reporting cadence.
