Chronic kidney disease is very common and hugely expensive to treat
CKD costs self-insured employers and payers millions of dollars each year.
1 in 7 Americans has chronic kidney disease and 96% in the early stages aren’t even aware of it.
As CKD progresses, patients need dialysis or a kidney transplant to survive. Sixty percent of patients die waiting for a kidney.
Risk-bearing organizations pay for the first 33 months of kidney care. Costs to employers can be over $500k per person.
The cost of transplantation, immunosuppressant drugs and associated care is roughly 1/5 the cost of dialysis.

There is a solution
Expediting transplants lowers costs and saves lives.
No matter the payer, directing an ESRD patient away from hemodialysis and toward kidney transplantation will result in a lower cost of care and improved health outcomes.
Self-insured companies are responsible for the first 33 months of dialysis costs before Medicare takes over as primary payer in month 34. The average cost for an employee on dialysis is $660,000 to $990,000 for the full 33 months. Transplants average $100,000 to $150,000 each.
ESRD costs are approximately three times more costly than a kidney transplant.
