RiskAverse Partners with the Colorectal Cancer Alliance of Central MA

The Objective

RiskAverse will educate members of the Alliance and the Central Massachusetts community about the risks of colorectal cancer and direct those that are due for a screening to their partnered screening partner, UMass Memorial Hospital’s Gastroenterology Department.

How it Works
