“To be able to see who is
the surgeon that’s going to be taking this case, who’s the radiologist on call, who’s the infectious disease provider on call—all at a glance—that just has huge value to an organization for patient safety and workflow efficiency.”

“The hospitalists at UNC
have an extremely complex schedule, so we needed a software that could take many things into consideration when creating a schedule, not only the providers’ preferences but also…the many services that we have.”
