Co-founder Blake McKinney, MD, who is an ER doctor, originated the idea for CirrusMD after seeing patients waiting for hours on end in the emergency room for issues that their primary care doctors could easily manage, if accessible. He set out to create a service that provides patients with an easier means of accessing healthcare services, regardless of insurance status. The Company's services are designed to streamline practice productivity and transform industry business models, while also substantially reducing costs.
CirrusMD's first two launch partners are pioneers in introducing remote access and mass-market telemedicine into the context of their existing practices. Family Medicine Associates in Middleton, MA and Roseville Internal Medicine in Roseville, CA are the first providers to offer CirrusMD. According to Mark Allara, MD of Family Medicine Associates, "CirrusMD will help us change the way that we deliver medicine and interact with our patients." William Webster, MD of Roseville Internal Medicine says, "It is exciting to partner with CirrusMD in order to offer technology that brings value to both patients and our practice."
