Nine healthcare organizations have launched Innovate Kidney Care, a campaign to improve at-home care options for patients with kidney failure.

The campaign is intended to advocate for greater health coverage and training of patients who prefer to receive dialysis at home rather than in a clinic, according to a June 29 news release.

“The dialysis industry has long been stagnant when it comes to delivering innovation to patients,” Innovate Kidney Care spokesperson Tonya Saffer stated. “We can accelerate home adoption [of dialysis technologies] by clarifying guidance and updating outdated regulatory restrictions for both patients and providers.”

The organizations involved in the campaign include Anthem, Intermountain Healthcare and CVS Kidney Care.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
