The Smart Scheduler includes many options that extend the flexibility of the system, and allow radiology groups to replicate the real world clinical scheduling process and environment within the SmartScheduler.

Wave Scheduling
The SmartScheduler support for wave scheduling of any appointment type. Wave scheduling allows a specified number of appointment slots to be defined as available at the same starting time, with patients being seen on a first come, first served basis. This feature allows patients to be given an even starting time for short duration appointments, and be seen in a time efficient manner.

Compound Resources
The SmartScheduler allows compound resources to be defined that include any number of resources or resource classes to be available within certain time offsets of each other. This allows you to combine providers, rooms and other resources in ways that they are required to treat the patient. This provides tighter control of the schedule, and ensures that no appointment is booked unless all required resources are available.

Resource availability
SmartScheduler includes extended options for specifying availability for each scheduling resource. Baseline schedules may be defined along with week by week exceptions to the general availability. Support for alternating schedules is also provided for repeating patterns within the schedule. Update to resource availability are quick and easy to make.
