Physician scheduling software

Physician scheduling software for fair medical groups

Organize call, shifts, clinics and coverage rules in one place, then prove fairness with a transparent score before publishing.

Physician scheduling software helps medical groups organize call, shifts, clinics and coverage rules in one place. SaniShift is built for small US medical teams that need automated scheduling, physician swap workflows, open shifts and a transparent fairness score for nights, weekends and holidays.

This is not patient appointment scheduling software. SaniShift focuses on the internal staff schedule: who covers call, who works which shift, who is unavailable, who can cover a site and whether the hard assignments are distributed fairly.

What small medical groups need to control

  • Call, shifts, sites and clinic coverage collide in the same calendar
  • Availability, skills and rest rules are hard to track in a spreadsheet
  • Nights, weekends and holidays are challenged when fairness is not measurable
  • Swap requests create hidden coverage gaps when they are handled by text

How to choose physician scheduling software

A useful tool should schedule staff, not patients; publish a clear price; let the team test without a sales call; measure fairness; avoid patient data; and keep swaps controlled.

  • Generate schedules from availability, skills, rest rules and center constraints
  • Review a transparent fairness score before publication
  • Manage physician swap requests with approval
  • Export schedules to PDF, Excel and ICS calendar files
SaniShift stores no patient data (PHI), so it operates outside HIPAA's scope. Use it for members, shifts, availability, constraints and swaps, not patient details.

Where SaniShift fits

SaniShift is best suited to small and mid-sized medical groups that want to control their own scheduling process without an enterprise rollout.

Frequently asked questions about physician scheduling software

What is physician scheduling software?

Physician scheduling software organizes the internal work schedule for physicians and medical teams. It handles call, shifts, availability, constraints, swaps, open shifts and exports. It is different from patient appointment scheduling software, which manages visits, bookings and front-desk calendars for patients.

Is SaniShift for patient appointments?

No. SaniShift is for medical staff scheduling, not patient appointment booking. It should be used for members, shifts, availability, call assignments, swap requests and schedule exports. Patient names, diagnoses, charts and visit details should not be entered into the product.

How much does SaniShift cost in the US?

SaniShift costs $99/month per center for up to 50 members. Additional centers are $49/month each. The price is public and the trial is self-serve, so a small group can test the product without booking a sales call first.

Does SaniShift include a fairness score?

Yes. SaniShift includes a transparent fairness score from 0 to 100. It helps the schedule maker review how sensitive assignments such as nights, weekends, holidays and heavy call loads are distributed across the group before the schedule is published or changed.

Can physicians request swaps?

Yes. SaniShift supports physician swap requests with validation. A physician can request a change, and the schedule maker can review coverage and fairness before approving it. This keeps the schedule flexible without losing oversight or creating hidden coverage gaps after publication.

Does HIPAA apply to SaniShift?

SaniShift stores no patient data (PHI), so it operates outside HIPAA's scope. The product is designed for staff scheduling information only: members, shifts, constraints, availability, open shifts, swaps and exports. Patient details and clinical notes should stay out of the schedule.
