MedAligna review
A rules-focused scheduler for clinical teams managing credentials, coverage, and compliance.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
MedAligna is healthcare staff scheduling software for clinics, hospitals, long-term-care facilities, home-care agencies, and other clinical teams. It builds and publishes rosters, manages rotations, tracks licenses and certifications, and supports open shifts, shift claims, swaps, time-off requests, and on-call rotations. Staff access schedules through a phone-friendly web app with a credential wallet, while administrators can apply rest and overtime rules and coordinate coverage.
According to the vendor's pricing structure, Starter costs $99 USD per location per month and includes schedule building, rotations, publishing, credential tracking with expiry blocking, shift swaps, open shifts, calendar synchronization, and the staff mobile web app. Pro costs $149 per location per month and adds automatic schedule generation, nurse-to-patient ratios, acuity and HPRD compliance, time and attendance with payroll export, and self-scheduling windows. Enterprise costs $249 per location per month and adds unlimited staff and locations, a REST API, signed outbound webhooks, and priority support. A 14-day trial is available, and annual billing is described as two months free.
The strongest fit is a facility that needs scheduling controls tied directly to credentials and clinical coverage requirements. Google, Outlook, and Apple Calendar synchronization supports common calendar workflows, while payroll export and CMS Payroll-Based Journal export extend the scheduling process into operational reporting. Enterprise integrations are more suitable for organizations connecting MedAligna with other systems. The tradeoffs are its paid-only structure, web-only delivery, and lack of AI features. Teams seeking explicit ratio, acuity, HPRD, and credential rules should consider it; organizations prioritizing native mobile apps or AI-assisted scheduling should look elsewhere.
