We re-invented OHIP Billing when we created Ontario’s first and most advanced OHIP Billing web application service. Now CabMD is available as a convenient and intuitive iOS Mobile App. MOBILITY: Doctors are on the move. Whether you are a specialist who roams the hospital hallways, or a family physician who jumps between examination rooms, CabMD untethers you from your desktop computer and empowers you to efficiently complete your OHIP Billing at the point of care. QUICK BILL: Doctors are busy. We know that you don’t have the time to be a slave to manual data entry. That’s why CabMD allows you to automatically populate patient demographic information from hospital stickers or the patient’s OHIP card. And thanks to the iPhone’s GPS capabilities, we can automatically determine your location to populate the service location and master number fields. PATIENT ROSTER: Patients come first. While we recognize that OHIP Billing is an important and necessary evil, we also understand that it should not take priority over clinical care. CabMD allows you to maintain a Patient Roster, which allows you to keep track of, and to bill for Hospital Inpatients who are either admitted under your care, or who you are following in consultation. With the Patient Roster, you can add a claim at any time for a patient, or you can use the Inpatient Claim Wizard to create claims for their entire hospital stay.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
CabMD holds the better App Store score, 3.0 against 1.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 5% of CabMD's written reviews are positive against 14% of TELUS CHR Mobile's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
CabMD ships an update every 3 weeks, TELUS CHR Mobile every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on October 3, 2026 and October 8, 2026 respectively.
