Moreover, mobile dialysis services are used in a state or federal disaster response.

Increasing Government Initiatives for Kidney Health

The growing concern related to kidney health has made the government and associated health authorities take one step forward to deliver a healthy life to people. In developed and developing countries, the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disorders and end-stage kidney disorders significantly drives the demand for kidney care. Various government initiatives, such as patient-led and patient-centered advocacy, are included to improve kidney health by transforming patient dialysis outcomes. In 2012, the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) and the US FDA established the Kidney Health Initiative (KHI) as one of the major organizations where the kidney communities can work collaboratively to understand the challenges in drug development, innovations, devices, biologics, and food products to improve the kidney health for those who have kidney conditions. It is one of the largest consortiums in the Kidney Community. In 2015, the Kidney Health Initiatives Project, which supported dialysis innovations, delivered lucrative market growth opportunities since its incorporation. Since 2015, the Kidney Health Initiative Patient & Family Partnership Council (PFPC) has been helping KHI stakeholders network and encourage kidney patients and patient organizations. In addition, PFPC advises industry and research institute partners on patients' needs and preferences as innovative products are developed and planned. In 2020, the collaborative initiation between the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention and ASN aimed at identifying a complication inherent to contemporary dialysis infection. So, increasing government initiatives for kidney health positively impacts dialysis services and pushes for market growth.
