Pager Raises Another $50M for its Comprehensive Virtual Care Platform
The pandemic has defined the future of virtual healthcare as the importance of providing unfettered access to essential healthcare services grew dramatically as society adjusted to the new dynamic. The adoption is expected to endure. In fact, virtual care visits for outpatient care increased 38x in February of this year compared to February of 2020. Despite surging usage and an increased willingness from both consumers and providers, the virtual healthcare journey experience can still be quite fragmented. Pager is a comprehensive virtual care platform that helps patients from initial triage to follow-up care, all in a seamless experience. Offered primarily through health plans and health care organizations, the platform is always accessible to allow access to nurses, doctors, pharmacists, coordinators, and advocates while allowing users to manage nearly every facet of healthcare including triage, telemedicine, appointment scheduling, e-prescriptions, post-care follow-ups, care advocacy, billing, and customer service. AlleyWatch caught up with Pager CFO Matthew J. Kempler to learn more about how Pager is allowing patients to navigate care pathways like never before, the company strategic plans, latest round of funding led by led by Susquehanna Private Equity Investments.

Seek Raises $4M for its Consumer Leisure Social Recommendation Platform
Half of Americans rely on friends and family for restaurant recommendations but your inner circle may not have the same tastes as you. Some turn to social media to discover what influencers are recommending. Others are reliant on static review sites like Yelp. But lost in these exchanges is a centralized, trusted destination to organize and access consistent recommendations that are relevant to the specific user. Seek seeks to change this with its social recommendation platform that connects consumers with like-minded curators that provide recommendations across six different segments – restaurants, cafes and sweets, nightlife, attractions, events, and activities. Users can discover, save, and share consumer leisure recommendations from curators that share similar tastes rather than relying on anonymous reviews. The newly-launched platform, currently focused on NYC, is designed for curators to build audiences and interact with their followers, offering monetization options that preserve authenticity but also allow the curators to earn a living. AlleyWatch caught up with Cofounder and CEO Shanna Liu to learn more about the inspiration to build a social discovery platform for consumer leisure that actually works for users and curators, the company’s strategic plans, and recent round of funding from investors that include Valar Ventures, QED Investors, Western Technology Investment (WTI), Entree Capital, Breyer Capital, and Goodwater Capital.
