Color is a health technology company that makes population-scale healthcare programs accessible, convenient, and cost-effective for everyone. We work with employers, labor unions, national health initiatives, governments, and public health institutions to provide the tools for preventive health and disease management, including cancer early detection, screening, and care management.
Apply to join Color and do the most meaningful work of your career. If you are not sure that you’re 100% qualified but are up for the challenge - we want you to apply!
In June 2023, Color and the American Cancer Society (ACS) introduced a cancer screening and prevention program for employers and labor organizations, combining the ACS’s expertise in cancer screening, prevention, and risk reduction with Color’s leadership in population-scale healthcare delivery. Since announcing our partnership with the American Cancer Society, our program has expanded to support diagnosis management, cancer treatment and care, and survivorship. Through our Virtual Cancer Clinic, Color is: helping employees and members diagnose cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage; caring for patients going through their diagnostic journeys with empathy and speed; helping cancer survivors navigate return-to-work challenges and complex clinical needs; and closing critical cancer screening gaps for high-burden cancers.
Cancer patients and survivors spend more time fighting their way through a fragmented healthcare system than they do fighting their disease. If you are passionate about changing that, apply to join Color and do the most meaningful work of your career.
