In this webinar, we will discuss the importance of seeing a nephrologist within two weeks of a hospitalization and the strategies that can be deployed to identify recent discharges and engage patients.
During this discussion:
- Learn about the research that is driving efforts to engage CKD patient's post-discharge.
- Hear about the biggest risks to patients with CKD after a hospitalization including the importance of medication reconciliation.
- Understand how physicians can use the electronic health record and Health Information Exchange to proactively engage patients with CKD after a hospitalization.
