CirrusMD, creator of the Physician-first Care & Guidance
virtual care model, is reshaping healthcare delivery by enabling
care that is instantly accessible, always informed, and directly
connected to the patient’s longitudinal health record. In a
groundbreaking collaboration with ful. Health, CirrusMD's renowned
virtual care services are now available to self-funded groups,

CirrusMD's Physician-first Care &
Guidance model, which connects users to a doctor in less than 60
seconds, 24/7/365, not only enhances efficiency but also supports
early diagnosis and treatment, ultimately improving health outcomes
and reducing healthcare costs. This model also helps to address
issues stemming from the scarcity of physicians in the U.S., by
empowering CirrusMD physicians with a smart, proprietary platform
for scalable care that enhances the quality, continuity, and
efficiency of care.
