Proquest LLC

Castlight Health said that it has expanded its technology platform through a partnership with Grand Rounds.

Grand Rounds' Outcomes Management platform is now available via Castlight to mutual enterprise customers, the Company noted in its release.

Castlight said that it enables large businesses to manage healthcare spending and enables employees and their families to make informed choices with a clear understanding of costs and likely outcomes. Grand Rounds helps ensure that top physicians in the country are accessible to everyone, anywhere - delivering better diagnoses, treatments, and outcomes to patients when they need it most. Grand Rounds Opinions is a service that provides employees expert medical guidance through a "virtual clinic."

For example, an employee looking for an orthopedics specialist can use Castlight to search and discover providers in their insurance network, using their merit data: cost, quality, and outcomes.

"Top quality medical care shouldn't be reserved only for the wealthy; it should be available to everyone, no matter where they are in their healthcare cycle," said Owen Tripp, CEO of Grand Rounds. "By ensuring that anyone, anywhere, has the ability to see a medical specialist regardless of geography, Grand Rounds is able to save time, money, and lives. Castlight can help us accelerate our already-rapid growth and support our mission to deliver positive healthcare outcomes to patients worldwide."

"Our work with Grand Rounds demonstrates Castlight's commitment to ensuring our customers - large businesses - can leverage the Enterprise Healthcare Cloud as a hub for presenting their roster of health and wellness partners to their employees. Castlight can help identify relevant employees and then engage them with partners like Grand Rounds," said Maeve O'Meara, vice president of Product Management for Castlight Health.
