Avoiding hospital readmissions for people with chronic kidney disease (CKD) is critical to improving outcomes and lowering costs in value-based care agreements with health plans. 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.

Speakers:

Dr. Terry Ketchersid - SVP, Medical Officer, Interwell Health

Dr. Marc Brazie - Nephrologist, Metropolitan Nephrology Associates

Jessica Demaline - SVP of Healthcare Operations, Interwell Health
