From the first line of code to the last, Gooroo Planner is designed to protect clinical priorities. We have gone to great lengths over this, even developing our own patient scheduling simulator, and researching its behaviour over more than a thousand scenarios and a billion simulated patient bookings. The reason: to make absolutely sure that urgent patients could always be treated quickly and safely, before going on to optimise scheduling and reduce waiting times for routine patients.

Our capacity planning rigorously puts emergency and urgent patients first in the competition for capacity, takes account of the casemix differences between urgent and routine patients, and handles the safe prioritisation of time-limited follow-up/repeat outpatients.

You don’t have to take our word for it: our patient-level simulator is built into Gooroo Planner for all to see, so you can satisfy yourself that all the results are absolutely consistent – at patient level – with the safe management of clinically urgent patients.
