Physician Call Scheduling Software That Actually Finishes

Most physician call scheduling software uses rule-based engines that flag conflicts and generate suggestions, leaving your team to manually resolve them. Thrawn's proprietary Scheduling Programming Language produces complete, mathematically optimal call schedules from your constraints. There are no suggestions to reconcile — you receive a finished schedule for review.

Yes. ACGME duty hour rules are embedded as hard constraints in Thrawn's optimization engine. The 80-hour weekly limit, shift caps, and required rest periods are enforced at generation time — meaning a non-compliant call schedule cannot be produced. This is fundamentally different from tools that detect violations after the fact.

No. Thrawn operates as a fully managed service, not a self-serve software platform. Your program sends constraints — resident preferences, rotation requirements, ACGME rules, and vacation requests — and Thrawn's scheduling specialists deliver finished call schedules for your review. There is no software to configure or learn.

Yes. When an unexpected absence occurs, Thrawn rapidly re-optimizes the affected call schedule to generate coverage alternatives. The re-optimization maintains ACGME compliance and mathematical fairness, so a single absence does not require emergency manual patching or compromise equity across the rest of the call schedule.

Thrawn serves residency and fellowship programs at academic health systems. The service is currently active across 19 departments at 14 hospitals within multiple top-20 academic health systems. It is purpose-built for graduate medical education, covering call, block, clinic, and attending schedules for complex academic programs.
