“The big shift is to try to keep people off of dialysis. If we can move upstream and better manage and provide care for CKD patients, chronic kidney disease patients; slow the progression, and then make sure they have optimal starts, and encourage more transplantation and home dialysis, then we’re going to improve patient outcomes and we’re also going to be saving costs. Both of those together is a win-win.”
