Pager (company)
Pager is a private company headquartered in New York City and founded in 2014. Pager develops, markets, and operates a mobile-app-based that allows users to request board-certified doctors to a specified location. By reducing the overhead costs seen in traditional healthcare settings, the company lowers the cost of quality care for their users by a significant amount and charges a flat-fee for services.
The company's network of doctors have emergency care specialities and are equipped to handle most urgent care needs. Pager is part of a growing trend of technological advancements in the healthcare field and is in the process of working to accept insurance. It is currently an out-of-network provider. The company seeks to help decompress emergency rooms and keep patients out of the hospital unless absolutely necessary.

Company
A company is an association or collection of individuals, whether natural persons, legal persons, or a mixture of both. Company members share a common purpose and unite in order to focus their various talents and organize their collectively available skills or resources to achieve specific, declared goals. Companies take various forms such as:
A company or association of persons can be created at law as legal person so that the company in itself can accept Limited liability for civil responsibility and taxation incurred as members perform (or fail) to discharge their duty within the publicly declared "birth certificate" or published policy.
Because companies are legal persons, they also may associate and register themselves as companies – often known as a corporate group. When the company closes it may need a "death certificate" to avoid further legal obligations.

Founders
In season two, Kaito Nakamura revealed that there were twelve founders of the Company, and a photo of the twelve is later seen (listed below under "Group photo"); it did not include Adam Monroe, an immortal human with the ability of rapid cellular regeneration, who is described as the one who "brought them all together." The Company began sometime between January 1977 and February 14, 1977. Monroe was locked away for thirty years on November 2, 1977, concluding that he only spent about 10 to 11 months with the Company. In the first season of the show, Daniel Linderman heads the Company until his demise. He is substituted in the second season by Bob Bishop, who is implied to be the Company's financial source. However, when Sylar kills him in the beginning of Season 3, Angela Petrelli takes over. Several of the founders have children who are posthumans and who are main characters within the series.
