Grand Rounds Opens New Center in Reno, Adding 200 Jobs to Area
The Economic Development Authority of Western Nevada (EDAWN) and Governor Brian Sandoval announced today that Grand Rounds, a company that improves healthcare by guiding patients to better physicians, is opening a new services and technology center in Reno.
The company is expected to add up to 200 jobs to the region.
Founded in 2011, Grand Rounds uses its proprietary, data-driven understanding of physician quality to guide patients to better health outcomes. Grand Rounds has found that top specialists produce remarkably better patient outcomes — including 37% lower surgical infection rates and 22% lower readmission rates.
Through a combination of medical expertise, analytics, and technology, Grand Rounds guides patients to the right physicians for their specific needs.
“Expanding into Reno is major milestone for Grand Rounds, and the Northern Nevada community has met us with open arms,” said Owen Tripp, Grand Rounds’ CEO. “We have already hired many incredibly talented local employees and we look forward to growing the team rapidly as we pursue our vision of guiding all patients to better health and health care.”
The new facility is located on Professional Circle in the South Meadows area. Candidates seeking to become part of the Grand Rounds team will find job information at http://www.grandrounds.com/careers/.
“The healthcare sector is exploding nationally so it is exciting to see Reno-Sparks recognized as a great fit for a company like Grand Rounds, a leader in this industry,” said Mike Kazmierski, CEO of EDAWN. “Companies like Grand Rounds will accelerate the transition of this region as a technology center that is attractive to the healthcare sector and other technology companies in the years ahead.”
