Tabzoola is a US manufacturer and supplier of custom index tabs for behavioral health client charts, printed and die-cut to order in Schaumburg, Illinois. Tabzoola's tabs are made at the Schaumburg plant of its sister company, Anselmo Die & Index, Inc., a family-owned index tab manufacturer since 1993, and ship nationwide.
A behavioral health record is built differently from a medical chart. It is narrative-heavy, it accumulates over a long course of treatment, and it is read by clinicians, supervisors, utilization reviewers and accreditation surveyors who each want a different section. Tabzoola prints the divider sets for those charts to your agency's own section names, collated and ready to assemble.
Section wording varies by agency, program and payer, and changes when forms change — which is the argument for printing rather than buying a stock pack.

The sections a behavioral health chart repeats
Whatever the program, the same categories recur in every client file, which is what makes a printed index worth holding. Agencies typically build around intake and consent, assessment, the treatment plan and its reviews, progress notes, medication and psychiatric records, coordination of care, and discharge.
Progress notes are the section that grows without limit, so most agencies give it its own tab and often its own colour. A chart where notes are separated from the plan is one a supervisor can audit quickly.
- Intake & Consent · Assessment · Diagnosis
- Treatment Plan & Reviews · Progress Notes
- Medication & Psychiatric · Coordination of Care
- Releases of Information · Discharge & Aftercare
Charts that get audited, not just used
Behavioral health records are reviewed by people who did not write them — clinical supervisors, utilization review, payers, and accreditation surveyors. Each of those readers arrives looking for one section and judges the agency partly on how fast they find it.
That is a different requirement from a chart that only its author reads. A printed index means a reviewer opening a file at one program finds the same order as at the next, regardless of which clinician assembled it or how long ago.
Color-coding for a chart read under time pressure
Assign one colour per section and the chart becomes navigable without reading the tabs at all — useful when a clinician is pulling a file between sessions, and useful again when a reviewer is working a stack. Nineteen paper colours and eleven poly colours are available, mixed freely within a set.
Poly is tear-resistant and wipes clean, which earns its cost on charts handled daily or carried between sites. Mylar-reinforced paper is the economical choice at agency volume and holds up well in a records room.
- One colour per section, mixed freely within a set
- 19 Mylar colours or 11 poly colours
- 3-hole punched and collated into ready-to-file sets
Priced per set, published, no quote step
Paper chart sets run $8.00 per set at 25 sets, $3.58 at 100 and $2.44 at 250, with setup included. A 5-tab set is $5.45 per set at 25 and $1.57 at 250. Poly runs higher because the material costs more and lasts accordingly. The price updates as you build the set online.
For an agency replacing charts across several programs at once, that is a single design decision followed by years of identical reorders. Your design is saved, so a program adding files mid-year gets a set that matches the rest.
- Minimum 25 sets, volume pricing to 1,000+
- About 5 business days for paper, 15 for poly, from proof approval
- Saved designs, so every program and every year matches

Frequently asked questions
What sections go in a behavioral health chart?
Most agencies index around Intake and Consent, Assessment, Diagnosis, Treatment Plan and Reviews, Progress Notes, Medication and Psychiatric records, Coordination of Care, Releases of Information, and Discharge. Wording differs by agency, program and payer, so the tabs are printed to your own section names rather than sold as a fixed pack.
How many tabs does a client chart need?
Ten to twelve covers most programs, which suits the 1/10 and 1/12 cuts; every cut from 1/2 to 1/15 is available. If you are working from an existing chart order, the tab cut calculator turns a section count into the right cut and number of banks.
Should we use poly or paper for client charts?
Poly is tear-resistant and wipes clean, which is worth the cost on charts handled daily or carried between sites. Mylar-reinforced paper is the economical choice at agency volume and holds up well in a records room.
Can every program in the agency use the same set?
Yes, and it is usually why agencies move to printed tabs. Your design is saved, so any program placing a reorder gets an exact match — same wording, same colours in the same positions, same cut — whether ordered by a different site or a year later.
What does a custom set cost?
Paper runs $8.00 per set at 25 sets, $3.58 at 100 and $2.44 at 250, setup included; poly runs higher. A 5-tab set is $5.45 per set at 25 and $1.57 at 250. That is per complete set rather than per tab, and pricing is published — you build the set online and see the price update, with no quote step.

Customer Reviews
We had a deadline to get 50 presentation books out, and our current tab supplier couldn't deliver the tabs that we needed on time. I worked directly with Justin and he was able to get our order manufactured and shipped out within days. The order arrived in time for us to complete our presentations, and the tabs looked great. This type of amazing customer service is very hard to find nowadays, but I'm thrilled to now have a supplier that I can count on.
Lamar, thank you — a deadline like yours is exactly what the shop is built for. The moment Justin heard it, your deadline became our deadline, and your order was manufactured and out the door in days. Rush work only counts when it arrives looking right, so "the tabs looked great" is the part we're proudest of. Count on us for the next one — we'll be here. John Anselmo, Tabzoola
Justin was so nice to work with ! He answered all my questions and now I feel like an expert :)
Megan, thank you for the kind words — I'll pass them straight to Justin. Getting every question answered before anything prints is exactly how we like to work, so "now I feel like an expert" is about the best review we could ask for. Whenever your next set of tabs comes up, your questions are always welcome. John Anselmo, Tabzoola
Glad I found you online. You're approximately 30 percent less than my old supplier and easier to work with. I'll be back.
Thank you, Ben — the price is no accident. We publish the whole table, setup included, so the number you see while you design is the number on the invoice. Glad the switch was easy, and we'll be ready when you are. — Tabzoola
I can't say enough about how great Justin was helping me with my order. After I approved the order he took time to call me to ask if i was sure about a decision to use next day delivery on the whole order when only a partial would keep me going while the rest of the order shipped ups ground. He saved me a ton of money. Thank you for caring about your customers. I wish more people were like you.
Thank you, Amy — I'll make sure Justin sees this. Splitting the shipment so only the part you needed went next-day was the right call, and it's the kind of thing we'd rather catch on the phone than have you find on the invoice. Anyone here would have made that call. Thank you for taking the time to write it down. — Tabzoola
My old supplier went out of business. You guys produced an exact copy of what we've been using. Thank you!!!
Thank you, Perri — losing a supplier you've used for years is a real headache, and matching a set you already rely on is the kind of job we like. If you ever need another one matched, a photo of an existing tab is enough for us to pick up the titles and the colors. Glad we could keep you running. — Tabzoola
Tabs came out better than expected. Will definitely be back.
Thank you, Joan — better than expected is a good place to land. The part people usually don't expect is the make: real die-cut tabs on index stock, with the Mylar bonded on both sides of the extension, which is where tabs tear first. We'll be ready whenever you need the next run. — Tabzoola
Very easy to use.
Thank you, Pat — short, and the best kind. Easy is the whole thing we were aiming for, so that is good to hear. Ready whenever you need more. — Tabzoola
You guys made ordering easy :)
Thanks, Louie — easy is the goal, and hearing it beats any feature list. Everything's printed and die-cut here in Schaumburg, so if anything ever isn't easy, you're one call from the people who made it. — Tabzoola
Very seldom do you see orders handled in such a professional manner. Thank you for a great job!
Thank you, Sherri — that’s a compliment we don’t take lightly. Every order here gets the same handling: a free proof before anything prints, and one shop seeing it through from die-cut to the box. Glad yours showed it. — Tabzoola
Very impressed how easy it was to order our index tabs. Will definitely be back for future orders!
Thank you, Anna — glad ordering was easy, that's the way it should be. And since you mentioned coming back: your design is saved, so the next run is a one-click reorder whenever you need it. — Tabzoola
Turned out perfect!
Thank you, Beth — "turned out perfect" is the best thing we can hear. Every set is die-cut and printed in our own shop in Schaumburg, so the people who made yours are the ones who checked it before it shipped. We'll be ready whenever you need the next one.
They looked great and saved hours of collating :)
Thank you, Chris — collating is exactly the labor we're trying to take off your desk. Your sets came off the line already in order, so nobody had to stack them by position. Glad it showed. We'll be ready for the next run. — Tabzoola
Thank's for the great service. Will be back for future orders.
Thanks, Greg — that's exactly what we like to hear. We'll be ready whenever the next set comes up. — Tabzoola
I'm truly impressed how easy it was to order.
Thanks, Tony — easy is exactly what we were going for, so that's good to hear. Your design is saved whenever you need more. — Tabzoola
Easy to order, they came out perfect!
Thank you, Nancy — "came out perfect" is exactly what we aim for. We've got your design saved whenever you need more. — Tabzoola
Thanks, Kim — that's what we were going for. The designer is meant to get you to a proof in a couple of minutes, not an afternoon. We're here whenever you need another set. — Tabzoola
Tabs turned out great, and the service was above and beyond.
Thank you, Jessica — service is the part we can't automate, so that means a lot. The tabs and the phone come from the same building in Schaumburg, which is the whole idea. Your design is saved whenever you need another run. — Tabzoola
Live pricing as you configure — no account needed. Free shipping over $75.
If it isn’t what you approved on the proof, we reprint it — or refund it. 30 days from delivery.
