One intelligent plan for healthcare logistics

Capillary Health matches people, clinical work, medications, equipment, and locations—then schedules and routes them around the real constraints of care.

Start with your workflow, resources, rules, and service area.

Healthcare logistics gets complicated fast

Every day, care depends on people, medications, equipment, facilities, patient windows, and geography. When those decisions live in separate spreadsheets and systems, one change can disrupt the whole plan.

Work is split across systems

Orders, rosters, inventory, locations, and operating rules rarely live in one place. Coordinators have to assemble the real picture by hand.

Resources move on different clocks

A clinician shift, medication window, specimen cutoff, equipment delivery, and patient appointment all shape what is actually possible.

The plan breaks in real time

Callouts, delays, cancellations, and shortages ripple through the network. Teams need a fast way to recover without losing sight of unmet care.

From operational data to a coordinated plan

Capillary Health brings matching, scheduling, routing, and recovery into one workflow.

Step 01

Connect the moving parts

Bring together clinical jobs, staff, assets, locations, availability, and time windows through structured files or connected systems.

Step 02

Build a feasible plan

The engine matches qualified resources, schedules the work, and routes movement while protecting clinical and operational requirements.

Step 03

Adapt as conditions change

When the day changes, revise affected assignments, protect critical windows, and keep unresolved needs visible to operators.

Built for real healthcare operations

The details that determine whether work can happen — qualifications, inventory, capacity, time, geography, and dependencies — become part of the plan.

Skills & resource matching

Matches people, assets, medications, and supplies to work that requires their specific capabilities.

Continuity & service quality

Protects preferred relationships, service standards, and recurring assignments when the operation allows it.

Balanced capacity

Distributes work, travel, complexity, and utilization so one part of the network does not carry the entire load.

Clinical time windows

Respects appointment windows, dose intervals, shifts, facility hours, cutoffs, and synchronized work.

Secure by design

Limits optimization inputs to the operational information required to build and explain the plan.

Multi-resource coordination

Coordinates teams, equipment, medications, specimens, couriers, and facilities as one connected operation.

Built on science, not guesswork

Our engine applies proven methods from healthcare routing, resource allocation, and operations research. It turns needs, capacity, geography, and time into plans operators can inspect and use.

Published Research

Algorithmic matching of personal protective equipment donations with healthcare facilities during the COVID-19 pandemic

Published in npj Digital Medicine (Nature, 2021), this work by Dr. Shuhan He demonstrated how operations research algorithms solve healthcare logistics at scale. GetUsPPE.org matched 83,136 items of PPE to 135 facilities in two weeks — a 280% increase over manual matching.

Capillary Health extends this approach to daily healthcare logistics: matching scarce people and resources to time-sensitive work across a distributed network.

Healthcare routing & resource allocation

Capillary Health combines established optimization methods to model the clinical and operational rules behind a feasible plan:

  • Multi-resource matching with skill and supply constraints
  • Time-window and synchronization requirements
  • Continuity and service quality as optimization objectives
  • Capacity balancing and resource utilization
  • Real-world road network travel times (OSRM)

Built for healthcare that has to move
