Field notes for the person building the call schedule.
Things I made for the senior resident, the chief, the fellow, or the one partner in the group who got handed the spreadsheet and is now spending every other weekend on it.
How to make a call schedule with AI that doesn’t hallucinate.
A free, step-by-step walkthrough for building a fair anesthesia call scheduler, with AI as the helper and a real constraint solver doing the actual work. Includes the open-source Python solver, sample data, and an agent handoff prompt that lets Claude Code or Codex run the whole thing with you.
Read the walkthrough →Anesthesia call schedule template.
An Excel starting point if you’d rather build the schedule by hand, or if you want a clean place to capture rules, names, and requests before handing them to the solver. Designed around the patterns we see in independent anesthesia groups.
Open the template →How an anesthesia call schedule actually gets built.
The rules every group has that don’t fit on a spreadsheet: post-call rest, partner allocation, weekend fairness, vacation routing, the local exceptions that turn into eight-line emails. Written from inside the work, not above it.

Longer pages on how PostCallMD works, who it fits, and where something else is the right answer.
Anesthesia call scheduling, built from your rules.
What we actually build for a group of 14 to 40 clinicians. Your post-call rest, your site coverage, your weekend pairings, written into a solver instead of a settings screen. Includes what the first month looks like and who does what.
Read how it works →Built for the group, not the hospital.
Most scheduling software is sold to the hospital and hands your group a configuration screen. This is the other shape: your scheduler keeps control, we build the solver, and your group approves the first live schedule before you pay.
Read the overview →QGenda, Amion, a spreadsheet, or us.
An honest side-by-side for anesthesia call scheduling. QGenda is a platform you configure. We build a solver around your rules and you keep the schedule. Where QGenda is the right answer for your group, the page says so.
