CEO Ron Kubit explains how his company partners with rural and critical access hospitals to deliver nephrology care locally, complete with dedicated nephrologists on call 24/7, portable equipment, and nurse training programs built for rural realities.
In this episode: how one Arizona critical access hospital admitted 126 dialysis patients in year one — all previously transferred out — generating $1.5 million in net revenue.
