Color Health is transforming cancer care through the nation’s first Virtual Cancer Clinic, offering high‑quality, physician‑led, multidisciplinary support in every state. Our evidence‑based model covers cancer screening, risk evaluation, prevention, diagnosis, treatment support, and survivorship. Alongside individualized medical care, we provide services such as genetic risk assessment, nutrition guidance, mental health support, and at‑home cancer screening. With technology‑driven, patient‑focused solutions, Color is reshaping how employers, unions, health plans, and government agencies address cancer. Our mission is to close major gaps in cancer care, improve patient outcomes, and support individuals with compassion throughout their healthcare experience.
In June 2023, Color partnered with the American Cancer Society (ACS) to launch a cancer screening and prevention program for employers and labor groups. This program combines the ACS’s expertise in screening and prevention with Color’s strength in large‑scale healthcare delivery. Since then, the partnership has grown to include diagnostic support, cancer treatment and care, and survivorship services. Through our Virtual Cancer Clinic, we help employees and members detect cancer earlier, support them compassionately through diagnosis, assist survivors with returning to work and managing complex needs, and address critical screening gaps for high‑burden cancers.
Cancer patients and survivors often spend more time navigating a fragmented healthcare system than fighting their illness. If you want to help change that, join Color and take on some of the most meaningful work of your career.
We are looking for an experienced, committed Oncology RN to join our Virtual Cancer Clinic team and support patients in cancer screening and prevention. This role is central to delivering remote cancer risk management, screening, and preventive care, improving adherence to screening guidelines, and ensuring timely follow‑up for abnormal results. As one of the early members of the Virtual Cancer Clinic team, you will help shape the development and success of our oncology care management and navigation program.
The ideal candidate is passionate about oncology, early detection, and prevention; comfortable using telehealth tools; and dedicated to improving outcomes in early cancer identification. You understand the challenges cancer imposes on patients’ lives and are driven to help them overcome these obstacles.
How You’ll Contribute:
• Serve as a key clinical resource for patients focused on cancer prevention, screening, and early detection.
• Communicate with patients by phone, messaging, and video to address clinical needs such as triage, symptom management, abnormal results, escalations, coordination with other providers, referrals, and arranging in‑person care.
• Perform comprehensive cancer risk assessments and create screening and prevention plans for physician review.
• Triage and manage symptoms suggestive of cancer and abnormalities in screening results, ensuring prompt follow‑up to confirm or rule out cancer.
• Offer compassionate, empathetic support to patients, building strong, trust‑based relationships and motivating them to take steps that reduce risk and improve outcomes.
• Assess symptoms and medical history shared during patient interactions.
• Work with Care Advocates to meet non‑clinical support needs.
• Help develop clinical protocols and best practices for prevention, screening, and high‑risk management in partnership with oncologists, primary care providers, genetic counselors, and care advocates.
• Participate in care team discussions to review patient progress and coordinate targeted support.
• Maintain detailed documentation of all patient encounters.
• Educate patients about cancer risks, screenings, and lifestyle changes aligned with national and specialty guidelines and Color’s protocols.
• Serve as an RN‑level escalation resource for non‑licensed clinical staff.
Our Ideal Candidate Will Have:
• BSN degree required.
• Active, unrestricted RN license with ability to obtain additional state licenses.
• At least 7 years of nursing experience, including 5 years in oncology.
• Oncology‑related certification (such as OCN, AOCN, AOCNS, CCM) or willingness to obtain within 12 months.
• 3+ years of adult outpatient clinical experience.
• Strong skills in motivational interviewing and guideline‑based, patient‑centered care.
• A strong drive to remove barriers and streamline care for patients.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills with emphasis on empathy and active listening.
• Dedication to evidence‑based, technology‑enabled cancer care and improving access.
• High standards for care quality and patient outcomes.
