Grand Rounds is a healthcare company that connects patients with local and remote specialty care. Based in San Francisco, California, the company also has operations in Reno, Nevada. It covers more than one million users across the United States and elsewhere, with service available in 120 countries. It has gained notability as a fast-growing and well-funded (over $100 million) private healthcare IT companies, its partnerships with hospitals include Boston Children's Hospital,Massachusetts General Hospital, the Hospital for Special Surgery, and New York Presbyterian Hospital, and for its Glassdoor "best places to work" awards.
The company offers two major services, "Grand Rounds Expert Opinions" and "Grand Rounds Office Visits." The first service connects users' local physicians with remote specialists for a collaborative team approach to tough cases. The second identifies the top local experts (for both surgical and non-surgical specialties) based on quantiative analysis. Services are generally purchased by large US-based and multinational employers (including Comcast, Target, Costco, and others). The company claims that its implementations generally pay for themselves by reducing infections, complications, readmissions, and other negative outcomes. Services can be accessed by phone, web, mobile application, and text chat.
Unlike ER-avoidance companies like Teladoc, the company does not remotely prescribe medications or perform treatments. Instead, the company focuses on specialty expertise in the high-acuity cases that drive the largest change, and on connecting patients to the right local experts.
