Security & Compliance

Security & compliance for physician scheduling data

Physician schedules should not require unnecessary patient data. Doc Doc Goose is designed around group-scoped access, conservative data collection, and clear history for schedule changes.

Our security philosophy

Scheduling data can still be sensitive: provider identities, assignment patterns, coverage changes, and operational details. We keep the product focused on scheduling and avoid collecting clinical details that are not needed to run the calendar.

HIPAA & governance

  • Business Associate Agreement (BAA) available.
  • Role-based access controls aligned to your org structure.
  • History for key schedule actions such as assignments and coverage changes.

Data protection

  • Encryption in transit and at rest.
  • Strict control over sensitive fields (no plain-text credentials).
  • Hardened cloud infrastructure on reputable providers.

Operational security

  • Backups and tested restore procedures.
  • Monitoring for unusual access patterns.
  • Principle of least privilege for system access.

Anomaly detection & fatigue awareness

We’re developing analytics to highlight potential fatigue risks (e.g., too many consecutive nights or concerning overlap patterns) and unusual login or change activity.

These tools are designed to support clinical leaders and compliance teams, not to replace institutional policies or judgment.

Security conversations with your team

Every organization has its own security and compliance requirements. We’re happy to walk through our approach with your IT, legal, and compliance stakeholders.

Early pilots include free security consultations so your internal teams can ask detailed questions and help shape priorities.
