Welcome to Community HealthCare System

Your good health and well-being is our top concern, and our goal is to exceed your expectations. With more than 450 associates at seven locations serving a large, four-county area, Community HealthCare System (CHCS) is a first-class, nonprofit health care system with a longstanding tradition of providing compassionate, high-quality care to the rural communities of northeast Kansas. As we continue to integrate and expand into the areas we serve, CHCS is making it easier for Kansans to access the care they need. Our team of caring professionals assists you and your family in every way possible, whether you’re at one of our seven Family Practice Medical Clinics or at Community Hospital Onaga, we ensure you have access to the information you need, and are able to make informed decisions with the help and support of your health care team. At CHCS, we truly benefit from a professional, caring staff who are recognized as much for their achievements as for their commitment to care.
