The Economics of Late-Stage Chronic Kidney Disease

Abstract:
Health care reimbursement is undergoing a fundamental change from volume-driven to value-driven care. The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is marshaling this change and empowering hospitals through Accountable Care Organizations to accept risk. ESRD care/nephrology was awarded the only disease-specific Accountable Care Organization, ESRD Seamless Care Organizations. Dialysis providers in partnership with nephrologists will be exploring how ESRD Seamless Care Organizations will drive improvement in care. CKD care and economics will no longer be isolated from ESRD but possibly more closely linked to global patient outcomes. Preparation for these changes will require unique co-operation and collaboration between nephrologists, dialysis providers, payers, and hospitals/health care systems. Early pilot trials, demonstration projects, and special need programs have suggested value care can be delivered. Whether these results are scalable needs to be determined.
