Blackwell Captive Solutions partners with virtual healthcare provider
Virtual healthcare services offered by CirrusMD have now been made available to US self-funded insurance groups through a partnership with ful.Health and Blackwell Captive Solutions.
CirrusMD said it connects users to a doctor in less than a minute and has physicians available around the clock, enhancing efficiency and supporting early diagnosis and treatment, which improves health outcomes and reduces healthcare costs.
"This model also helps to address issues stemming from the scarcity of physicians in the US, by empowering CirrusMD physicians with a smart, proprietary platform for scalable care that enhances the quality, continuity, and efficiency of care," a statement from the company said.
Blackwell Captive Solutions serves as the channel partner in the process, facilitating access to CirrusMD’s virtual care services.
Kari L. Niblack, president of Blackwell Captive Solutions, said: “CirrusMD’s unwavering commitment to on-demand, transparent, proactive care not only enhances patient outcomes, but also ensures sustainable cost management for healthcare stakeholders. We are thrilled to partner with ful.Health to deliver CirrusMD’s virtual care.”
Dr Bernie Saks, Founder and CEO of ful.Health, said: “CirrusMD represents the epitome of the right model for virtual care, seamlessly integrating technology with compassionate, physician-led guidance. Their innovative approach aligns perfectly with our mission to transform how plans use and pay for healthcare. Partnering with Blackwell Captive Solutions further strengthens our commitment to delivering cost containment solutions that improve members’ health and financial well-being.”
Jamie Hall, president & CEO of CirrusMD, added: “To realise virtual care’s full potential, we need to integrate it seamlessly into healthcare. This model supports expanded Primary Care, delivering high-quality, empathetic, and accessible care for patients, efficiency for providers, and savings for plan sponsors.”
