What It Is
If no locum accepts your booking request within 2 hours, Airlocum automatically resends it to boost your chances of filling the shift.
Key Point: The system copies all filters from your original search.
Filter Impact on Rebookings
Show my favourites → Rebooking only goes to your favourites list
Price filter → Rebooking respects your price limits
Distance filter → Rebooking stays within your set mileage
No filters → Rebooking goes to all available locums in your area
Two Main Strategies
1. Controlled Rebooking (for selective practices)
Build a Favourites list of 15–30+ trusted locums
Always use Show my favourites filter
Add other filters (price, skills, distance) as needed
2. Maximum Coverage (for urgent shifts)
Use minimal/no filters in your initial search
Allows both initial and rebooked requests to reach all suitable locums
💡 Tip:
Plan your filter strategy before booking. Controlled filters give precision; no filters maximise speed.
