DaVita Commends Kidney Care Partners for Launch of PEAK Campaign
Date:6/9/2009

ilies. DaVita applauds the work of all members of Kidney Care Partners and looks forward to working together to provide even better outcomes for new dialysis patients."

As part of DaVita's commitment to continuous quality improvement, the company recently announced similar efforts with the company's IMPACT(TM) (Incident Management of Patients, Actions Centered on Treatment) pilot program. In a study presented at the National Kidney Foundation's Spring Clinical Meeting in Nashville, TN, DaVita researchers detailed how the IMPACT patient care model educates and manages dialysis patients within the first 90 days of treatment, when they are most unstable and are at highest risk. Data reflects a reduction in annualized mortality rates by eight percent for IMPACT patients compared with non-IMPACT patients in the DaVita network.
