By leveraging Health Gorilla's FHIR-based clinical data APIs and accessing its robust diagnostic lab network, CirrusMD will be able to connect to multiple vendors with a single integration. The partnership will also provide CirrusMD physicians with access to patients' complete clinical history, streamlining the experience for both patient and physician.

Patients using the CirrusMD platform are immediately connected to physicians with expertise ranging from acute care to management of chronic conditions, and from behavioral health to women's health issues. Evidence-based best practices ensure the highest quality of care is achieved.

"By working with Health Gorilla to access diagnostic services, we're enabling a more seamless patient experience," said Ashley Gibson, Vice President of Product and Design for CirrusMD. "One of our goals is to care for every patient need that can be addressed virtually. With Health Gorilla, we take the next step, as our physicians instantly order labs and diagnostic services for patients during an encounter on the CirrusMD platform, providing a more complete and integrated experience."

Health Gorilla and its network will benefit from this partnership through bidirectional data exchanges with CirrusMD physicians, facilitating better care coordination between CirrusMD providers and other organizations treating shared patients.

"We are very excited to support CirrusMD as they create a more accessible, extensible, and scalable telemedicine service," said Sergio Wagner, Chief Strategy Officer and Co-founder of Health Gorilla. "Access to our lab network and clinical data will help them provide a truly integrated virtual primary care experience."
