Scheduling Wizard

Chief residents and fellows responsible for building complex schedules for GME programs and provider groups find it one of the most stressful and time-consuming parts of their role. Programs must account for vacation requests, granular rotation rules, call and clinic coverage, and specialty-specific requirements across departments like neurology, internal medicine, and surgery. Building these schedules manually is slow and error-prone, and programs need the result to be equitable and workable for every provider. Testimonials describe skepticism going in given how complex their schedules were, suggesting existing in-house methods struggle with this complexity.

Scheduling Wizard is a service that builds physician and residency schedules on behalf of GME programs, provider groups and private practices, covering daily schedules, call, clinic and other blocks. Programs provide inputs such as vacation requests and rotation scheduling requirements, the team follows up with clarifying questions, and then delivers a completed schedule, as described in the Johns Hopkins fellowship example. The service claims to reduce scheduling time by 95%+, handle complex and granular rules, and integrate into existing workflows. It serves many specialties including neurology, internal medicine, emergency medicine, family medicine, general surgery, psychiatry, urology, neurocritical care, and pediatrics.
