The facilities we serve receive a host of benefits

Clinical quality

  • Preventable escalation of conditions often coincide with reactive care. We constantly monitor changing vitals, lab results and other indicators, even when not on site, before it's too late. Our routine visit schedules during normal business hours allow us to interact with your team, as a true extension.

  • Sporadic specialist visits can result in missed or delayed care opportunities, sometimes catastrophic. Our nephrologist-led care teams are physically present on-site and hold weekly in-person meetings with your nursing leadership to review patient panels.

  • Commonly used medications like ACE inhibitors, ARBs, diuretics, NSAIDs, antibiotics and statins can impair kidney function in complex ways - our team monitors these medication interactions and makes adjustments in a team-based approach with other specialties.

  • Our renal specialists chart in your EHR and coordinate with your team of on staff nurses and consultants to ensure a holistic approach to care, in much the way you would expect in an acute setting.

Overall satisfaction

  • Your staff has a lot to worry about; we provide an additional layer of renal oversight, providing backup to often over-stretched nursing teams.

  • Our providers make themselves available to patients and their families, even when not on site, to answer questions, provide updates and enhance transparency.

  • Our team provides ongoing education to your nursing staff through webinars, lunch-and-learns and other formats to enhance their understanding of renal care for geriatric populations.

  • Our providers make themselves available via text, phone and email to your nursing teams to answer questions and provide direction on care, in real time.

Financial position

  • Our partner facilities market themselves as having a nephrologist-led consult program, thereby attracting patients with complex renal needs and establishing a reputation amongst referring facilities.

  • Our services don't add any costs to your facility - absolutely none!

  • As the industry transitions to value driven payment models like Medicare's Patient Driven Payment Model (PDPM), higher quality care for complex patients can improve reimbursements.

  • Preventable readmissions are costly for post-acute facilities in more ways than one; our program uncovers renal problems before they escalate, reducing readmission rates and protecting your facility's reputation.
