DURHAM, N.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--To improve system-wide care coordination and physician communication, academic medical centers (AMCs) are increasingly relying on Clairvia’s Physician Scheduler® software as their one, enterprise-capable physician scheduling product.
Numerous AMCs have recently selected Physician Scheduler, the industry leader in physician scheduling solutions. They include:
- Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia
- University of California Health System
- University of Utah Health Care
- University of Michigan Health System
- University of Miami Health System

“Today’s AMCs recognize that delivering quality healthcare requires maintaining quality relationships and providing an integrated way to communicate with its physicians and caregivers,” says Beth Pickard, Clairvia president and chief executive officer. “After all, a recent study, conducted by the Center for Health Information and Decision Systems, estimates U.S. hospitals waste $12 billion a year due to the effects of inadequate or delayed communication.
“An essential first step in ensuring effective communication with physicians begins with a clear understanding of ---- and control over ---- physicians’ often very complex schedules.”
Given the intricacies of the modern healthcare delivery system, “the effective synchronization of provider resources is critical,” says Dale Lucas, manager at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. “Physician Scheduler is the solution we’re relying on to achieve efficient care coordination.”
Physician Scheduler’s flexible scheduling engine is at the core of its enterprise-ready design, providing scheduling solutions to all types of physician specialties and staff, including faculty, residents and clinical support personnel. Combined with Physician Scheduler Web and MobileConnect, physicians and staff have anytime, anywhere access to real-time scheduling information, improving point-of-care decision-making and enhancing physician and staff productivity and satisfaction.
With Physician Scheduler, AMCs also have the opportunity to eliminate the inefficiencies and costs of disparate, fragmented systems, and lower the cost of ownership by implementing a single solution that accommodates all physician specialty scheduling requirements.
