Unlike Amion's manual approach, Thrawn's done-for-you managed service uses its optimization engine to deliver finished, ACGME-compliant physician schedules with zero scheduling workload for your team.
Amion is a publishing tool, not a scheduling engine. Every rotation, call shift, and clinic assignment still has to be manually constructed and resolved by your team.
Without optimization, one resident swap creates a cascade of broken assignments across your block, call, and clinic schedules that only you will catch.
Amion does not include a duty hour engine. Violations surface after the schedule is published, leaving program directors scrambling before site visits or accreditation reviews.
Thrawn is a true Amion alternative: a done-for-you managed service powered by an optimization engine that produces complete, mathematically optimal schedules from your constraints. Where Amion requires you to build and fix, Thrawn delivers a finished product. Your team reviews instead of builds.
Five capabilities built for residency and fellowship programs that Amion was never designed to provide.

Managed Service
Thrawn's scheduling specialists absorb your entire scheduling workload. You submit constraints and receive a complete, ready-to-review schedule. No software to operate, no conflicts to manually resolve.

Compliance
Unlike Amion, which does not include a duty hour engine, Thrawn's optimization prevents violations at generation time. Every schedule produced already satisfies ACGME duty hour rules before your team ever sees it.

Optimization
Amion treats each schedule type in isolation. Thrawn's optimization engine builds block, call, clinic, and attending schedules as one interconnected system, eliminating the domino effect that cascades through manually built schedules.

Fairness Engine
Manual scheduling in Amion leaves fairness to human judgment, which invites complaints and perceived bias. Thrawn's equity engine distributes nights, weekends, and holidays with mathematical precision across every resident.

Rapid Response
When a resident is unexpectedly unavailable, Amion does not provide a coverage solution. Thrawn re-optimizes the entire affected schedule rapidly, maintaining fairness and ACGME compliance without emergency phone trees.
