Standard.
A wealth of experience has gone into the development of MetricAid’s scheduling tool. Strategically designed with input from physicians, former hospital administrators, expert schedulers, and software specialists, the application reflects a deep understanding of physician scheduling details.
At the core of the tool’s design is our savvy team. These dedicated people work hard to make the lives of physicians and schedulers easier.
MetricAid Standard
Strategically designed to optimize your department’s operation.
Physicians access the tool on their computers, tablets, or phones to update shift preferences or trade shifts. Schedulers then incorporate this new information going forward.
Before beginning with new clients, we pre-configure parameters⎯those details unique to their department or their individual physician’s contracts. This ensures schedules work perfectly for everyone.
We realize how important it is to factor in physicians’ preferences⎯and to provide the flexibility for them to trade shifts easily. Evidence from our clients shows this reduces physician burnout and improves their well-being⎯both important goals for us.
We’ll let our stats do the talking.
Reliable. User Friendly. Efficient. Advanced.

Examples of
scheduling rules.
Our scheduling tool is designed to efficiently incorporate a wide range of scheduling rules. Here are a few examples:
Provider A works the 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. shift every Monday.
Provider A can only work one shift per day, unless doubles are requested.
All providers must work 120 hours per month.
When a provider works a morning shift in Brantford, they must not work an evening shift in Toronto.
Providers must work a minimum of 1 shift in Brantford per week.

"Our emergency department recently transitioned to Metricaid Scheduling and where I used to have to juggle through 23 different doctors individual excel spreadsheets and hand written notes and spend roughly 10-12 hours per month making the schedule, I can now easily make the schedule in 2-3 hours."
