Active Treatment Management

Active cancer treatment that keeps people on the right path

When someone is diagnosed with cancer, every decision and every delay matters. Color surrounds each person with an oncologist-led clinical team that serves as an oversight team on their side that reviews treatment plans, manages symptoms in real time, and guides high stakes decisions alongside local providers.


The result is fewer complications, fewer delays, and better outcomes for your population.

Cancer complexities impact outcomes and costs 

Cancer treatment is where the highest costs, greatest risks, and most consequential decisions occur. Yet most people move through treatment without consistent clinical oversight, timely symptom support, or clarity on whether the plan in motion is the right one. These gaps lead to avoidable, costly emergency visits, fragmented care, and outcomes that vary widely across populations.

Delays and incomplete assessments
Delays and incomplete assessments

Slow or fragmented diagnostic assessments, long waits for important appointments, and missing information can push treatment back by weeks or months. Starting late or with a complete, accurate plan increases complications and lowers the chance of success.

Mis-matched treatment decisions
Mis-matched treatment decisions

Without cancer-specific specialist input, people may start on therapies not aligned with guidelines, be treated at higher cost sites of care, or miss referrals that would meaningfully change their outcomes. These decision points create significant variation in both cost and quality.

Symptoms that escalate to crises
Symptoms that escalate to crises

Pain, dehydration, nausea, and other treatment related symptoms often intensify between visits. Without timely clinical support in real time, people end up in the emergency department or hospitalized. These events disrupt treatment and drive significant spend.

Correcting a misdiagnosis

Case Study

Correcting a misdiagnosis

A patient came to Color with a pancreatic cancer diagnosis from their treating provider. After reviewing the case through our tumor board, our clinicians identified the diagnosis as incorrect. It was actually cholangiocarcinoma, or bile duct cancer, a different disease requiring a completely different treatment plan, prognosis, and clinical trial options.

Because a partnership had been built with the treating provider from day one, Color caught the error before therapy began, avoided unnecessary treatment, and moved the patient quickly into the right care.


What Color made possible:

  • Correct diagnosis made before treatment through direct peer-to-peer review
  • Treating oncologist aligned with Color’s recommendation and updated the care plan
  • Special case approval secured in five days for care at a nearby cancer center

Frequently asked questions

Common question asked and answered here?

On March 16th, 2020, the first stay-at-home orders were issued in the San Francisco Bay Area. Exactly two weeks later, Color had built a CLIA-certified COVID-19 testing lab and digital platform. One week after that, Color and the City and County of San Francisco launched one of the first high-capacity, public COVID testing sites.

In the months and years to come, Color supported employers, schools, and Federal, state, and local health departments across the country—Thermo Fisher Scientific, the CDC, the State of California and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Chicago Public Schools, to name a few—to provide critical access where people worked, played, learned, and worshiped. When antiviral treatment became available, Color ran three-quarters of the country’s state-level telehealth programs, with prescription delivery within 24 to 48 hours of symptom onset. Our population health work has since expanded to support other infectious disease areas. Color currently runs the State of California’s HIV PrEP telehealth access program.
