Listening to employees via regular feedback helped these companies adapt their perks and build new resources for this current remote world.

On March 6, Colombia’s ministry of health reported the country’s first case of COVID-19. Just over a month later, the total of cases had topped 2,000 and would only grow. Many patients turned to telehealth as a safer alternative to the crowded waiting rooms of hospitals and clinics. NYC healthtech startup Pager was able to create a white-label solution over a long weekend to handle the influx of coronavirus-related traffic.

Engineering is currently the largest department at Pager with 40 engineers and is expected to grow beyond 50 by the end of the year. We met with three members of Pager’s engineering team to learn how they are expanding product offerings and continuing to build out their patient and care-team collaboration platform.

NYC tech is home to some of the most innovative companies changing their industries — and the world — for the better.

Pager is leveraging mobile technology in the telehealth market to move the ball forward on real change in U.S. healthcare. The company has recruited teams with diverse healthcare experience and technical expertise — all deeply committed to positive patient outcomes.
