Provision of Home Dialysis by Freestanding Renal Dialysis Facilities
This article explores home dialysis provision among freestanding renal facilities by examining whether they provide continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD), and home hemodialysis. These modalities require fewer visits to a dialysis center, which may be beneficial for patients living long distances from facilities. A negative association wa...
متن کاملEquity of Accessibility to Dialysis Facilities
Patients' end-stage renal disease (ESRD) characteristics are changing. Improving the quality of care requires a steady adaptation of treatment modalities together with equity of access to dialysis facilities. We explored the ability of the health system to cope with the demand of ESRD care. An analysis of a 5-year follow-up cohort of ESRD patients in the Limousin region, France, was performed. ...
متن کاملDialysis Modality Selection Among Patients Attending Freestanding Dialysis Facilities
Persons with end stage renal disease (ESRD) are eligible to receive dialysis services under the Medicare program. An individual-level analysis was performed to determine the factors associated with the modality selected by patients; namely in-center hemodialysis, continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD), continuous cycling peritoneal dialysis (CCPD), and home hemodialysis. Logistic regr...
متن کاملPredictors of chain acquisition among independent dialysis facilities.
OBJECTIVE To determine the predictors of chain acquisition among independent dialysis providers. DATA SOURCES Retrospective facility-level data combined from CMS Cost Reports, Medical Evidence Forms, Annual Facility Surveys, and claims for 1996-2003. STUDY DESIGN Independent dialysis facilities' probability of acquisition by a dialysis chain (overall and by chain size) was estimated using a...
متن کاملVariation in the level of eGFR at dialysis initiation across dialysis facilities and geographic regions.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES The relative influence of facilities and regions on the timing of dialysis initiation remains unknown. The purpose of the study is to determine the variation in eGFR at dialysis initiation across dialysis facilities and geographic regions in Canada after accounting for patient-level factors (case mix). DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS In total, 33,263 di...
