Our take
Pager is a virtual care platform that delivers a range of services to healthcare clients. The app allows patients to schedule appointments and connect with caregivers and medical professionals while providing telemedicine, after-care follow-up, and various other options.
Since its rebranding in 2014, Pager has experienced substantial growth, reflecting the increasing demand for telehealth solutions. The company has formed several partnerships with established healthcare providers, including a notable deal with Horizon Healthcare Services in 2017. These collaborations have helped expand Pager's reach and integrate its services into existing healthcare systems.
Interest from private investors has also been significant, with the company securing substantial funding. However, Pager faces intense competition in the telehealth market, which is projected to be worth $191.7B by 2025. Competitors like NextGen Healthcare EHR, ReveneueWell, SimplePractice, and OnCall Health present alternative solutions, making it crucial for Pager to continually innovate and differentiate itself in this rapidly evolving space.
