What CoverED is
CoverED is scheduling software designed for emergency medicine groups, including single-site and multi-site departments, residency programs and schedule administrators. It builds monthly schedules with a six-pass algorithm that considers requests and configured constraints, fills NOC shifts first and balances weekends. The model supports AM, PM and NOC shifts, nocturnist role separation, and an APP layer with one to four slots per day depending on plan. Providers can submit availability, block dates, request shifts or PTO, trade named shifts and claim open shifts from a phone. The software tracks shift and weekend equity, offers three-month rolling burnout indicators, and carries deficits into later months. Schedules can sync to Apple, Google or Outlook calendars through ICS or webcal; PDF and CSV exports and email and SMS digests are also available. Residency tools include block scheduling and ACGME duty-hour checks. CoverED imports earlier schedules from files, screenshots or copied text. It stores scheduling data only, not clinical data, and encrypts information in transit and at rest on SOC 2 infrastructure. Paid plans include setup, and any plan comes with a free 30-minute walkthrough.
