From Protocol Behavioral Health's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
Protocol provides cancer-specific behavioral health treatment to patients by partnering with oncology clinics and cancer centers. Oncology patients are at heightened risk of mental health disorders and suicide, and those conditions negatively impact patient outcomes, treatment adherence, and total cost of care. Our approach is designed to meet patients where they are: emotionally, logistically, and financially.
We deliver high-quality mental health support for cancer patients using the collaborative care model, integrated directly into oncology treatment centers.
The team consists of experienced healthcare operators and executives who have built and scaled partnerships across behavioral health, oncology, and value-based care. We are a fast-growing, early-stage company focused on expanding access to care through strong partnerships with leading oncology providers.
This role is central to how Protocol grows and sustains its impact. We partner with oncology clinics and cancer centers to deliver behavioral health care to cancer patients, and the success of that model depends on two things working well together: strong, trusted relationships with our oncology practice partners and a healthy patient referral pipeline that converts referred patients into care.
Reporting to our Chief Executive Officer, this person will serve as the primary relationship owner for our oncology practice partners, partnering with our internal implementation team to ensure a clean handoff once each practice is live, then owning account management, driving performance, and ensuring partners have a high-quality experience working with Protocol.
In parallel, they will work to activate referring providers within those partnerships and oversee the patient referral funnel, leading the Care Coordinator team in converting referred patients to scheduled and completed intakes with a Behavioral Health Care Manager (BHCM).
This role is well-suited for someone who is growth-oriented and relationship-driven in equal measure, energized by moving referral numbers, building trust with clinical partners, and doing the operational work that makes both possible. Comfort with early-stage environments and a genuine connection to the mission of improving access to behavioral health care for cancer patients are a must.
Lead and manage the Care Coordinator team, overseeing their effectiveness in converting referred patients to scheduled and completed intakes with a Behavioral Health Care Manager (BHCM)
Drive and own referral volume and patient conversion from referral through completed intake by developing and managing patient & clinician facing content and reporting that move providers to refer patients to engage, including outreach scripting, provider education and partner dashboards
Work cross-functionally with clinical and operations teams to coordinate panel reviews between BHCMs and their most frequent clinical partners, while designing and building the systems, processes, and infrastructure that support scalable partner success and referral conversion as Protocol grows
