CirrusMD is a different kind of virtual healthcare company. CirrusMD provides employees with the fastest, most effortless access to virtual primary care doctors. Care is delivered by multi-specialty doctors who treat a broad range of conditions — from acute to chronic — across a spectrum of disciplines, from primary care to behavioral health to women’s health.

We are excited to announce CirrusMD as our Partner of the Week, where we highlight one of our unique PlanSource Marketplace Partners and the value they bring to the benefits industry. We recently sat down to discuss their unique employee benefits and how they support mental/behavioral health and whole health within the benefits industry.

What makes your company unique in the benefits space – what key benefits do you provide to employees?

CirrusMD connects employees to a licensed physician in under 60 seconds, at any time and in any place, 24/7/365. All encounters begin via chat, giving individuals a simple and discreet way to seek the medical help they need, without having to schedule an appointment or find a private area for a phone or video call. Their integrated care is delivered by multi-speciality, board-certified doctors who can treat a broad range of conditions, from acute to chronic, and from primary care to specialty areas, including behavioral health. CirrusMD is available to millions of users across all 50 states, and exclusively offered through employers and health plans.

What industry problems are we solving with our partnership for HR teams and/or their employees?

CirrusMD addresses a key problem we all have: access to high-quality primary care. They have flipped the traditional care model to provide patients with immediate access to a licensed physician. This means that employees can access care whenever it’s convenient for them, regardless of the job they do for you, and without having to wait for a physician, nurse or intake specialist. When access to care is immediate, this means employees can more often avoid expensive/unnecessary ER, Urgent Care, and Specialist visits, which creates cost-savings opportunities for employers.

What is one thing your company is doing to innovate your product/offering to change the industry?

CirrusMD is using technology to enhance the power of doctor to patient interactions. Automation, bots, and AI are all the rage these days, but are usually placed between the patient and the physician, which can be frustrating for all parties. While the care CirrusMD delivers is 100% human-powered, they use AI behind the scenes to help their doctors be more efficient and effective when helping patients through their care journey. Ultimately, this facilitates their ability to provide physician-directed navigation to existing benefits/point solutions, in-network providers, and other resources that may help with issue resolution & longitudinal care.
