WHO WE ARE
At KCP, we are working together to improve quality of care, choice and access for individuals living with kidney diseases.
WHO WE ARE
Kidney Care Partners (KCP) is a non-profit coalition of over 25 organizations, comprising patients, dialysis professionals, physicians, nurses, researchers, therapeutic innovators, transplant coordinators, and manufacturers.
KCP members are committed to meeting patients’ needs at every stage along the care continuum, and our diverse membership shares a broad vision of KCP policy priorities. These priorities range across the full spectrum of the disease cycle from education and prevention to early intervention to dialysis and, finally, to transplant and post-transplant care.
Our policy priorities focus on supporting patient choice and access in coverage options, treatment modalities, and innovative treatments and services; transforming the Medicare ESRD benefit into a more patient-centered program, advancing quality to promote transparency and patient-centered decision-making, and ensuring access to care for individuals living with kidney disease as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.
