Billing & Payments
Invoices, payments, instalment plans, Paymob, insurance claims, and financial reports.
Invoice lifecycle
DRAFT > ISSUED > PARTIALLY_PAID > PAID
> OVERDUE
> CANCELLED
> REFUNDED
Invoices are created automatically when a session is completed. They start as DRAFT — you can edit line items before issuing. Click Issue Invoice to lock it and make it visible to the patient in the portal.
Creating and editing invoices
Auto-generated invoice: appears after every completed session, pre-filled with services from the session Services tab.
Manual invoice: go to Billing > + New Invoice and select the patient.
Editing a draft:
- Add line items: click + Add Item, select a service or type a custom description
- Change quantities and prices: click any cell to edit
- Apply discount: fixed amount (EGP) or percentage
- Add tax: VAT rate (14% default, configurable per clinic)
- Insurance deduction: enter the insurer contribution; patient balance updates automatically
Once issued, line items are locked. Corrections require a Credit Note.
Accepting payments
Card payment via Paymob:
- Open the invoice > Collect Payment > Card.
- A payment link is generated and sent to the patient via WhatsApp.
- The patient pays on Paymob hosted page.
- A Paymob webhook fires to Clinit — the invoice updates to Paid automatically.
Cash:
- Collect Payment > Cash.
- Enter the amount received and change given.
- Click Confirm.
InstaPay or Bank Transfer:
- Collect Payment > InstaPay or Bank Transfer.
- Enter the reference number and confirm receipt.
Supported methods: Visa, Mastercard, Meeza, Vodafone Cash, Orange Money, Fawry, ValU, InstaPay, bank transfer, cash.
Instalment plans
For large treatment costs:
- Open the invoice > Convert to Instalment Plan.
- Set the number of instalments (2 to 24) and the due date for each.
- Clinit splits the balance equally — you can override individual amounts.
- Click Save Plan.
Each instalment appears as a separate row. When the patient pays, click Collect next to that instalment and select the payment method.
Automatic reminders: Clinit sends a WhatsApp reminder 3 days before each due date. Configure this under Settings > Automations > Instalment Reminders.
Progress bar: the invoice row shows a visual fill bar showing paid vs remaining.
Revenue summary and reports
The billing table header shows a live summary bar:
- Total Billed: all issued invoices in the period
- Collected: sum of all payments received
- Outstanding: issued but unpaid
- Overdue: past due date and unpaid
- Collection Rate: collected divided by billed, shown as a progress bar
A dismissible alert banner appears when overdue invoices exceed EGP 1,000.
For detailed reporting go to Analytics > Revenue Dashboard or Finance > P&L Statement.
Insurance claims
Clinit structures the full insurance billing workflow:
PATIENT INSURANCE SETUP
In the patient profile > Administrative > Insurance:
- Insurer name (from your registered insurer list)
- Policy number
- Network type (e.g. Allianz Egypt, AXA, MetLife, GIG)
- Co-payment amount (EGP)
- Primary vs secondary coverage
CLAIM GENERATION
After a session is completed and the invoice issued:
- Open the invoice > Generate Insurance Claim.
- System pre-populates: patient demographics, insurer, diagnosis (ICD-10, up to 4 codes), procedures (CPT codes or local codes), itemised costs.
- Attach supporting documents: referral letter, lab results, pre-auth number.
- Click Submit Claim.
PRE-AUTHORISATION
For procedures requiring pre-auth:
- Billing > + Pre-Auth Request.
- Auto-populated with patient details, diagnosis, proposed procedure, and clinical justification.
- Enter the pre-auth reference number when received — stored against the appointment.
CLAIM TRACKING
Each claim shows status: Submitted → Under Review → Approved → Paid / Rejected / Partially Paid.
Rejected claims display the rejection reason code and suggest the most common corrective actions. Edit and resubmit without recreating from scratch.
UHI READINESS
All claim fields use ICD-10 and CPT coding — the same standards required by Egypt's Universal Health Insurance programme.
