BioSked Unveils Revolutionary Scheduling Platform

In a bold move aimed at transforming the radiology scheduling landscape, BioSked has recently expanded its Momentum platform, introducing a pioneering AI-driven solution designed to streamline radiology and teleradiology team organization. By focusing on Relative Value Units (RVUs) and executing operations across multiple time zones, BioSked is setting a new standard in healthcare staffing.

Addressing Industry Challenges

As demand for imaging services grows and the realm of teleradiology expands globally, many radiology practices still rely on outdated methods such as spreadsheets and manual paperwork for scheduling. This inefficiency can lead to staff fatigue, uneven workloads, and ultimately, detrimental impacts on patient care. BioSked’s Momentum platform seeks to remedy these issues by bringing advanced technology to workforce management.

How Momentum Works

1. RVU-Based Staffing

One of the most significant innovations is the implementation of an RVU-based assignment system. This feature enables radiologists to be scheduled based not just on hours worked, but rather on actual workload and specialty needs. This ensures that staffing aligns precisely with clinical demand, optimizing the allocation of resources.

2. Multi-Time-Zone Coordination

The platform is equipped to coordinate both onsite and remote radiologists across different time zones. This is particularly crucial for providing constant coverage and making more efficient use of off-peak hours. As a result, radiology groups can establish global partnerships for teleradiology while maintaining high standards of care.

3. AI-Driven Efficiency

Momentum eliminates up to 90% of administrative work, significantly reducing the need for manual schedule modifications. The platform also employs fairness constraints to ensure transparency in staffing decisions, allowing for smoother operations without excessive back-and-forth adjustments.

Meeting Modern Demands

Today’s radiology teams are confronted with a series of escalating challenges, from increasing case volumes to a shortage of qualified personnel and rising rates of burnout. Momentum offers a balanced approach to addressing these obstacles by ensuring that the right expertise is consistently matched with workload requirements, regardless of the physical location of the staff.

David Dudok de Wit, CEO of BioSked, emphasizes the importance of effective scheduling in healthcare delivery:

“Scheduling healthcare staff shouldn't be an afterthought. It's the backbone of how care gets delivered.”

By utilizing RVUs as a planning tool and coordinating teams across different time zones, the Momentum platform allows radiology groups to handle growing demands effectively, protecting their staff from overwork and optimizing every minute they are scheduled.

Doug Nicholson, General Manager of North America at BioSked, adds:

“For many of the groups we speak with in North America, the challenge is not just filling shifts, but also demonstrating that coverage aligns with both demand and RVUs.”

With Momentum, leadership figures in radiology can utilize a single platform to manage both onsite and remote teams, ensuring fairness in staffing and making informed decisions backed by clear insights—not just old spreadsheets.

Experience Momentum at RSNA 2025

Attendees at the RSNA 2025 conference in Chicago will have the opportunity to experience the Momentum platform firsthand at Booth #8010. Visitors can see:

• - Visualizations of RVU-based demand by modality, site, and time.
• - Balanced scheduling for onsite and remote radiologists across various time zones.
• - Streamlined processes through integration with existing workflows, moving away from manual spreadsheet planning.

Live demonstrations will be conducted throughout the conference, with individualized briefings available for leaders in radiology and teleradiology. To schedule a media or client meeting at RSNA, appointments can be made directly through BioSked.
