Physician shift scheduling software that ends chaos

Most physician shift scheduling software uses rule-based engines that generate suggestions requiring human intervention to resolve conflicts and ensure fairness. Thrawn's proprietary Scheduling Programming Language (SPL) uses mathematical optimization to produce complete, finished schedules from your constraints. There are no suggestions to reconcile — you receive a finalized schedule for review. Competitors would need to fundamentally rebuild their scheduling engines to replicate this approach.

Yes. ACGME duty hour compliance is built into the optimization itself. Every schedule Thrawn generates automatically satisfies the 80-hour weekly limit, 24+4 shift caps, required rest periods, and day-off requirements. Violations are prevented at generation time, not detected after the schedule is built — eliminating the rework that comes with post-hoc compliance checks.

Thrawn delivers Block, Call, Clinic, and Attending schedules for residency and fellowship programs. These are optimized simultaneously as one interconnected system, so a change in one schedule type does not cascade into errors across the others. Programs send their constraints and receive finished schedules covering all schedule types.

No. Thrawn operates as a fully managed service. Programs send their constraints — resident preferences, rotation requirements, ACGME duty hour rules, vacation requests, and educational goals — and Thrawn's scheduling specialists deliver finished schedules. There is no software to configure, no platform to learn, and no scheduling workload left on your team.

Thrawn currently serves 19 departments across 14 hospitals at multiple top-20 academic health systems on the East Coast, West Coast, and Southwest. Programs include residency and fellowship departments that have replaced manual scheduling processes with Thrawn's done-for-you managed service.
