About This Webinar

Value-based care is transforming chronic kidney disease (CKD) management and setting new standards for improved outcomes. During this webinar, we will discuss how standardized best practices and innovative care strategies have led to success in the CMS's Kidney Care Choices (KCC) value-based program, and we’ll discuss how learnings from this value-based model can inform payer programs to improve outcomes for members and reduce costs.

This thought-provoking session with leading nephrology practices is crafted for health care leaders and payers seeking to understand and apply proven value-based care programs in their organizations by examining results from the government's Kidney Care Choices model to improve outcomes for people with CKD. We’ll explore proven methodologies that demonstrate the power of aligning the right clinical approaches with cutting-edge technology and tailored EHR solutions.

The content will also cover strategies for engaging patients and providers in value-based care initiatives, and how to measure success. This includes identifying metrics that matter most for improving patient outcomes and reducing costs.

Secure your spot today and join the movement toward better patient outcomes while driving cost efficiency.
