Health Plans

The cancer care health plans can put into practice

Color delivers oncologist-led cancer care across every stage and geography for members. In full coordination with existing plan systems, Color physicians screen, diagnose, prescribe, order tests, manage symptoms, and ensure guideline-based follow-up across the full cancer journey.

The cancer care challenge health plans must solve

Cancer is a major driver of medical spend. Missed screenings, delayed diagnoses, uncoordinated care, avoidable emergency visits, and unmanaged survivorship care push costs higher, while most solutions focus too late to give plans real clinical control when it matters.

With Color, the challenge can be met and won.
