About

CaseFlo

Features
Read full description

Your chief resident graduated last July. Their case tracking spreadsheet walked out the door with them. Now you're digging through old emails, hoping someone followed up on that pre-op workup—and praying nothing fell through the cracks. This is what happens when your program runs on spreadsheets and group texts. Every July, you start over. CaseFlo changes that. One platform where every surgical case lives—from initial consult through post-op. Cases stay current. Tasks stay assigned. Conversations stay with the patient, not buried in someone's inbox. NOTHING FALLS THROUGH THE CRACKS Every task links to a case. Assign it, track it, verify it's done. When leadership asks "who's handling that?"—you'll know. CONTINUITY THAT SURVIVES TURNOVER When a resident rotates off service, the next one picks up exactly where they left off. No hunting. No guessing. No rebuilding. COMMUNICATION THAT DOESN'T DISAPPEAR Case discussions live with the case. Three years from now, you can still see why that surgical plan changed. BUILT BY PEOPLE WHO GET IT Designed specifically for oral and maxillofacial surgery residency programs. Board-style views. Calendar integration. Role-based access for attendings, chiefs, and residents. Your program deserves better than scattered spreadsheets and disappearing group chats. CaseFlo keeps your cases organized, your tasks accountable, and your team aligned—today, and every July after. HIPAA-compliant. Ready when you are.
