  • Title: Establishing a successful home dialysis program.
    Author: Diaz-Buxo JA, Crawford-Bonadio TL, St Pierre D, Ingram KM.
    Journal: Blood Purif; 2006; 24(1):22-7. PubMed ID: 16361836.
    Abstract:
    The renewed interest in home dialysis therapies makes it pertinent to address the essentials of establishing and running a successful home dialysis program. The success of a home program depends on a clear understanding of the structure of the home program team, the physical plant, educational tool requirements, reimbursement sources and a business plan. A good command of the technical and economic aspects is important, but the primary drivers for the creation and growth of a home dialysis program are the confidence and commitment of the nephrological team.
