Legislative Agenda

OVERVIEW

Through our work with policymakers, Kidney Care Partners (KCP) advocates for policies that improve the coordination of care and the understanding of chronic kidney disease (CKD), lower the barriers that block patients from accessing and choosing treatments, expand and enhance research efforts, and that reform the economics underlying the kidney care landscape so that financial incentives are aligned with patient goals.

In all, KCP’s legislative goals are to promote legislation that will:

Expand kidney disease awareness and education
Create an economically stable dialysis infrastructure and incentivize innovation
Increase patient access to quality performance information
Expand patient choice in coverage
