Improving Chronic Kidney Disease Care Requires a Team Effort

Free Zoom Webinar | May 14 from 12 to 1 p.m. PT

Chronic Kidney Disease affects 1 in 7 adults, but widespread underdiagnosis hinders early, manageable treatment for countless Washingtonians. To improve screening and treatment, we need a coordinated effort among health care providers, health plans, and purchasers.

Join WHA and other health care leaders to discuss how we can drive system change to improve our treatment of chronic kidney disease.

Speakers include:
  • Kerri Lenihan, Executive Director of Clinical Care Integration, Mercy Health
  • James Rael, MD – Medical Director, Western Territories, Aetna

 

Three key takeaways from the event:
  •  The role of primary care physicians and clinicians in detecting and managing CKD.
  • Using your internal data to improve gap closure in screenings and treatment.
  • The business case for health plans to enact initiatives to improve screening and early intervention.
