How Real-Time Data and Automation Transformed TeleHospitalist Staffing for a National Physician Group

Key Takeaways:

  • 100% automated case assignment and distribution eliminated manual coordination and call center reliance
  • 22% reduction in total physician hours required to maintain nationwide coverage
  • 2x increase in productivity for cross-cover constuls
  • Coverage across 11 health systems and 13 different hospital locations

Challenge

A national physician group faced growing challenges in managing TeleHospitalist services across multiple locations and health systems. Legacy technology required manual assignment and distribution, and staffing decisions were being made without access to unified, real-time data across teams.

The organization needed a scalable solution that would:

  • Optimize physician utilization
  • Improve case assignment
  • Drive efficiency
  • Provide actionable data at scale

Solution

By partnering with AmplifyMD, the physician group replaced its legacy telehealth system with a modern platform, automating key workflows and gaining previously unavailable insights.

  • Automated case assignment and distribution
    Manual coordination was fully eliminated. The platform automatically routed consults to the appropriate provider, reducing delays, improving throughput, and removing the need for call center support.
  • Smarter staffing with advanced analytics
    Real-time visibility into consult volume and physician utilization enabled a full redesign of the staffing model. The result: a 22% reduction in total physician hours required to maintain nationwide coverage.
  • Higher productivity without burnout
    With streamlined workflows and reduced documentation burden, physicians delivered significantly more care in each shift—while maintaining high performance and avoiding overload.

How are data and automation powering more efficient clinical models?

Turning insights into impact

With AmplifyMD’s advanced analytics, time-stamped activity tracking, and dynamic demand calculators, the organization was able to compare physician utilization across three distinct provider pods, hour-by-hour, across locations.

The data quickly surfaced imbalances—some teams were consistently operating at full capacity, while others had significant idle time. Heat maps highlight which pods were overextended and which were underutilized.

This level of visibility enabled the team to redesign their staffing model, redistributing coverage more strategically and reducing total physician hours by 22%—without sacrificing quality or responsiveness.

More consults, less burden

Thanks to AmplifyMD’s streamlined workflows and intelligent automation, hospitalists could handle twice the number of cross-cover consults per shift—without added stress or technology burden.

By reducing context switching and minimizing documentation time, the platform let clincians focus on care—not clicks.
