About CHO and Atrius HealthCommonwealth Hematology-Oncology (CHO) and Atrius Health — two healthcare leaders — have been providing outstanding, community-based patient care for many years. Now they have joined forces to provide local patients with optimal cancer care at Commonwealth Atrius Cancer Center.
CHO has 11 offices and numerous clinical affiliations throughout the state. Together, CHO and their affiliates strive to care for patients in the community health care system while also working with major medical centers on new treatment protocols. Known for its leadership in community-based cancer care, CHO has been recognized as a national model, with CHO physicians caring for patients for over three decades. CHO was the first group practice in the state to develop treatment guidelines for specific cancers, the first to develop a computerized software program for chemotherapy ordering, the first to create a patient advocacy program, and the only area practice to be selected by the National Cancer Institute to offer a community-based clinical trials program.
