Rotations that build themselves
Set up 24/48, 48/96, day/night, or a custom pattern once and the schedule generates itself. Open trucks stand out, so you catch coverage gaps days ahead, not at shift change.
EMS scheduling software
EMS scheduling software built around crews, credentials, and coverage
My Shift Bid is crew scheduling software built for ambulance services and EMS agencies. It builds your schedule from your rotation — 24/48, 48/96, day/night 12s, or your own pattern — posts open shifts for qualified crews to bid on from their phones, handles trades and coverage, tracks every certification, and matches timeclock punches to shifts so payroll comes out sorted. Your rest rules, hour limits, and attendance points are enforced automatically on every request.
Built for EMS
What your agency gets
Open shifts filled by bidding
Post an open shift and qualified crews bid on it from any phone. Routine pickups clear automatically under your rules; anything unusual waits for a supervisor.
Trades without the phone tree
Medics swap shifts or pick up coverage with a tracked request. Both schedules update together and nobody ends up double-booked.
Every cert, current
EMT, AEMT, Paramedic, driver, CPR, state licenses — tracked with expiration warnings. Anyone scheduled beyond their card shows up in red.
Timeclock and attendance
Crews clock in on approved station devices. Punches match shifts automatically, and late or missed punches are scored under your point policy.
Payroll, sorted
Hours export split into regular, overtime, holiday, PTO, and sick — ready for ADP, Paychex, QuickBooks, Genesis PPG, or a spreadsheet.
Can it handle EMS rotations and part-timers?
Yes — that's the point. EMS schedules aren't nine-to-five, and My Shift Bid doesn't pretend they are.
- 24/48, 48/96, day/night 12s, and fully custom patterns
- Split shifts, long shifts, and mid-shift unit changes
- Part-time and PRN staff set availability and bid from their phones
- Rest-between-shifts and weekly hour limits enforced automatically
How do open trucks get covered?
When a medic calls out, you post the open shift once. Every qualified member sees it immediately — in the app, by email, or by text — and bids from wherever they are. The rules engine checks each bid against rest rules, hour caps, and certifications before it ever reaches you. You choose what clears automatically and what waits for a supervisor, and every award is logged. No group texts, no call sheets, no favorites.
What else is in the platform?
Every plan includes the entire system — not just scheduling.
- Daily rig checks on a phone, with expired supplies flagged on the spot
- Numbered tamper seals for narc boxes and supply cabinets
- PTO, sick, and vacation banks that accrue on their own
- Online hiring (applicant tracking) and training (LMS) with recert automation
- Documents, custom forms, and messaging with delivery tracking

Questions
EMS scheduling questions
Yes. My Shift Bid is used the same way by private ambulance companies, hospital-based services, county and municipal third-service EMS, and fire-based EMS. The rules engine adapts to your policies — attendance points, bid order, rest rules — whatever your operation runs on.
Yes. Part-time and PRN members mark their availability, bid on open shifts from their phones, and only see shifts they're qualified to work. Hour limits and rest rules apply to them automatically, just like full-time staff.
Yes. Crews clock in on station devices you approve, punches match to scheduled shifts automatically, late and missed punches get flagged, and attendance points follow your policy. Hours export sorted for ADP, Paychex, QuickBooks, Genesis PPG, or a spreadsheet.
Every card and license — EMT, AEMT, Paramedic, driver, CPR, state licenses — lives in one place with expiration warnings. Anyone scheduled on a shift they're no longer qualified for stands out in red, and finishing a recert course in the built-in training module renews the matching card automatically.
My Shift Bid starts at $500 per month for agencies up to 50 users, and every plan includes the entire platform — scheduling, bidding, timekeeping, rig checks, payroll export, hiring, and training. Annual billing gets two months free. See full pricing.
