Now, she receives dialysis from home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s easier on your body and better for your health,\u201d she explained. \u201cAnd far better than exposing yourself to whatever you might get from being in a group of people\u201d in the middle of a pandemic.<\/p>\n<h5>Home Dialysis and Patient Choice<\/h5>\n<p>For decades, nephrologists have encouraged the use of home dialysis, yet most people starting dialysis went to treatment centers for their dialysis care. Socioeconomic factors such as housing instability, inadequate family and caretaker support, and poverty are important barriers to home dialysis. Inadequate pre-dialysis education, late nephrology referrals, lack of exposure to home dialysis during nephrology training and skepticism among some nephrologists about the benefits of home dialysis likely contribute to the low uptake of home dialysis in the US. Patient choice is paramount. Some patients don&#8217;t want to burden their family with home dialysis, while some, who might otherwise be socially isolated, enjoy the opportunity for interpersonal interactions at the dialysis center.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome individuals with advanced kidney disease may have some degree of cognitive impairment or they may be too frail to lift bags of dialysate solution,\u201d said <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/directory\/gerald-hladik\/\">Gerald Hladik<\/a><\/strong>, MD, the Doc J Thurston Distinguished Professor of Medicine and chief of the division of nephrology and hypertension. \u201cThey also need adequate room to store supplies in a clean, private space.\u201d<\/p>\n<h5>Advancing American Kidney Health (AAKH) Initiative<\/h5>\n<p>The cost of care for patients with chronic kidney failure remains high, with Medicare expenditures for these patients accounting for more than 7% of all Medicare costs, despite representing only 1% of the Medicare population. The <a href=\"https:\/\/aspe.hhs.gov\/system\/files\/pdf\/262046\/AdvancingAmericanKidneyHealth.pdf\">Advancing American Kidney Health (AAKH) Initiative<\/a>, aims to improve outcomes for patients with kidney disease by changing the way disease is detected, treated and paid for in the US. Transplantation remains the best treatment for advanced kidney disease, providing improved quality of life, decreased mortality, and lower costs. Importantly, the AAKH will also provide incentives for transplant centers to improve transplantation rates.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.med.unc.edu\/medicine\/directory\/abhi-kshirsagar\/\"><strong>Abhijit Kshirsagar<\/strong><\/a>, MD, said the initiative will \u201chave a really profound impact on kidney care,\u201d and recognized how patient-centered incentives will improve patient care. Kshirsagar is the Covington Distinguished Professor of Medicine in the division of nephrology and hypertension, chief medical director of the UNC Dialysis Care and medical director of Carolina Dialysis Siler City.<\/p>\n<p>The AAKH aims to reduce the number of Americans developing end-stage renal disease by 25 percent by 2030, have 80 percent of new ESRD patients in 2025 either receiving dialysis at home or receiving a transplant, and double the number of kidneys available for transplant by 2030.
