and more cost effective
The majority of CKD patients can be
managed in primary care

3. The Challenge
Identifying and knowledge of patients
DHB audit shows it knows only 1/3 of
patients with mod/severe kidney disease
Risk stratifying patients
Managing resources
Creating timely systems and processes
Improving integration and collaboration
4. Progress to Date
Collaboration with Ministry of Health
Development of National Consensus
Statement.
Development of a CKD Working Party
Linkage of CKD Pilots including IT system
Discussion underway on HSAGlobal + DHB
innovation partnership to prove model
5. Future Goals
Endorsement of CKD Consensus
Statement
Further development and dissemination of
CKD IT tools
Better management of CKD between
primary and secondary care
