The Alliance Advancement Series
Improving Access to Kidney Transplantation: An Innovative Approach to Tackling Waitlist Readiness
October 26, 2023 @ 3:00 pm - 4:00 pm• EST

With an influx of patients on the waitlist with increasingly long wait times, how are transplant centers managing their waitlist to ensure that an offer is never bypassed, and their patients are ultimately transplanted? During this webinar, we will be joined by Dr. Heher of Square Knot Health who will discuss his partnership with providers to facilitate care coordination and education for transplant patients with a focus on identifying the safest and most effective treatment options for their kidney disease.

  • Describe the relationship between kidney transplant education, evaluation, and transplant.
  • Discuss novel approaches to improving access to kidney transplant education and evaluation.
  • Employ strategies shared to help patients and donors navigate the donor evaluation and kidney transplant process.
