Founded in 2002, COA works to increase awareness on Capitol Hill about the community cancer care delivery system and motivate oncology practices to become politically active. The organization also leads a number of health reform initiatives including a patient centered medical home tailored to oncology practices, a patient advocacy network, a pharmacy manager association, and practice managers network. COA also organizes an annual conference for community oncology practices, physicians, patients, and administrators.
