Grand rounds secures $175 million investment, led by the carlyle group, to accelerate clinical navigation and virtual primary care
SAN FRANCISCO and NEW YORK – september 9, 2020 – grand rounds, a leader in healthcare quality and clinical navigation, announced today it has secured a $175 million round led by investment funds affiliated with global investment firm the carlyle group (NASDAQ: CG), and will use the funds to accelerate clinical navigation and virtual primary care.
The company, which covers six million lives across more than 130 large, self-insured employers, has undergone a period of rapid growth and improved member outcomes. In addition to launching several new virtual provider offerings to enable access to high-quality care amidst COVID-19, grand rounds has expanded its relationships with the nation’s most forward-thinking innovators in healthcare benefits such as the home depot, walmart, salesforce and travelers. Over the past year, the company has increased its covered lives by 55 percent.
“we are at a turning point in american healthcare, a moment when healthcare has become virtual-first and data can be used to dramatically improve outcomes. Since our founding, grand rounds has helped millions navigate their way through the complex U.S. Healthcare system, serving as the personal healthcare assistant to support whole-person care. This financing from a premier investment group with a long history of success in healthcare will deepen our ability to scale and provide the highest quality care and outcomes for our members,” said owen tripp, co-founder and chief executive officer of grand rounds.
“digital health has grown rapidly in recent years due to the significant disruption and innovation it brings to the healthcare industry. Healthcare navigation, in particular, is playing a pivotal role in addressing every facet of an individual’s healthcare journey, at scale, by increasing access to high-quality care while reducing overall costs. We are excited to support owen and his team at grand rounds, given their impressive track record of improving patient outcomes, as they build, grow and seek to improve the quality of healthcare for everyone, everywhere,” said robert schmidt, a principal specializing in healthcare at the carlyle group.
Grand rounds recently launched several new solutions to expand the ways it connects and develops long-term relationships with members, as well as handle any healthcare need in the virtual setting, be it clinical, financial or administrative. Urgent response, its 24/7 crisis response offering, was unveiled in april 2020 to support employees impacted by COVID-19 and employers navigating the challenges of workplace reopenings. Grand rounds also enhanced its premier navigation solution to include telemedicine, becoming the first in the market to go beyond “tele-urgent” care and to transform virtual care into a comprehensive and integrated experience with both clinical navigation and specialty care. For example, grand rounds’ telemedicine physicians can see member plan and coverage information and other relevant benefits to create personalized, effective and affordable care plans, ultimately reducing costs and improving outcomes.
Grand rounds has raised over $270 million to date, allowing the business to continue scaling its operations across the country. To learn more about how grand rounds has helped fortune 50 companies improve their employee’s access to the highest quality healthcare, visit https://grandrounds.Com/employers/why-choose-us/
The investment in grand rounds is a continuation of carlyle’s long-term global commitment to healthcare, in which it has invested more than $15 billion of equity since inception. Carlyle’s significant experience investing in high-growth healthcare businesses includes one medical, medrisk, albany molecular research, PPD, multiplan and rede D'or são luiz, amongst others.
Investment grade
What is investment grade?
An investment grade is a rating that signifies a municipal or corporate bond presents a relatively low risk of default. Bond rating firms like standard & poor’s and moody's use different designations, consisting of the upper- and lower-case letters "A" and "B," to identify a bond's credit quality rating.
"AAA" and "AA" (high credit quality) and "A" and "BBB" (medium credit quality) are considered investment grade. Credit ratings for bonds below these designations ("BB," "B," "CCC," etc.) are considered low credit quality, and are commonly referred to as "junk bonds."
Investment grade
Understanding investment grade
Credit ratings are extremely important because they convey the risk associated with buying a certain bond. An investment grade credit rating indicates a low risk of a credit default, making it an attractive investment vehicle—especially to conservative investors.
Investors should note that government bonds, also known as treasuries, are not subject to credit quality ratings, yet these securities are nevertheless considered to be of the very highest credit quality.
In the case of municipal and corporate bond funds, a fund company's literature, such as its fund prospectus and independent investment research reports, will report an "average credit quality" for the fund's portfolio as a whole.
[important: many institutional investors have instituted a rigid policy of limiting their bond investments solely to investment-grade issues.]
Investment grade credit rating details
Investment grade issuer credit ratings are those rated above BBB- or baa. The exact ratings depend on the credit rating agency. For standard & poor's, investment grade credit ratings include:
Companies with any credit rating in this category boast a high capacity to repay their loans; however, those awarded an AAA rating stand at the top of the heap and are deemed to have the highest capacity of all, to repay loans.
The next category down includes the following ratings:
Companies with these ratings are considered to be stable entities with robust capacities for repaying their financial commitments. However, such companies may encounter challenges during deteriorating economic conditions.
The bottom tier of investment grade credit ratings delivered by standard and poor's include:
Companies with these ratings are widely considered to be "speculative grade" and are even more vulnerable to changing economic conditions than the prior group. Nevertheless, these companies largely demonstrate the ability to meet their debt payment obligations.
According to moody's, investment grade bonds comprise the following credit ratings:
- Aaa
- Aa1
- Aa2
- Aa3
- A1
- A2
- A3
- Baa1
- Baa2
- Baa3
The highest-rated aaa bonds possess the least credit risk of a company's potential failure to repay loans. By contrast, the mid-tier baa-rated companies may still have speculative elements, presenting high credit risk--especially those companies that paid debt with expected future cash flows, that failed to materialize as projected.
Key takeaways
- An investment-grade rating signals that a corporate or municipal bond has a relatively low risk of default.
- Different bond rating agencies have different rating symbols, to signify investment grade bonds.
- Standard and poor's awards a "AAA" rating to companies it deems least likely to default.
- Moody's awards an "aaa" rating to companies it considers to be the least likely to default.
Special considerations: credit downgrades
Investors should be aware that an agency downgrade of a company's bonds from 'BBB' to 'BB' reclassifies its debt from investment grade to "junk" status. Although this is merely a one-step drop in credit rating, the repercussions can be severe.
The drop to junk status telegraphs that a company may struggle to pay its debts. The downgraded status can make it even more difficult for companies to source financing options, causing a downward spiral, as costs of capital increase.

- Operating in industries that we actively follow and believe we understand well; for the most part, industries that we have been involved with throughout our careers.
- Sustainable, industry-leading market positions generating significant cash flow.
- Restructurings, reorganizations or other turnaround situations where we know the management team, understand the industry, and feel the market is incorrectly pricing the opportunity.
Investment process
Once we have identified a promising company, we tend to follow the company’s progress for a time before investing, and then invest in stages. Before committing capital we put each of our potential investments through a thorough review process that includes analysis of the following:
- Management
- Valuation, both relative and absolute
- Accounting practices
- Economic, business and product cycles
- Competitive position
- Business model and projected financial performance
- Trends in industry, subsector and comparable companies
- Corporate governance
Services
Each client portfolio is managed separately. This allows us the flexibility to somewhat tailor each individual’s portfolio and to be as tax efficient as market conditions warrant. We have discretionary trading authority over accounts. Clients receive monthly brokerage statements and trade confirmations, as well as a quarterly performance review that we prepare. We also provide an unaudited realized gains and losses report at year end.
Management terms and conditions are set forth in our investment advisory agreement, a copy of which is available upon request.
