Vantive, a vital organ therapy company with a 70-year legacy of kidney care innovation, and U.S. Renal Care (USRC), a leading comprehensive kidney care provider serving patients nationwide, today announced a multi-year strategic agreement to expand access to home dialysis, enhance the patient experience, and strengthen support for care teams.
U.S. Renal Care partners with nephrologists across 32 states to care for more than 37,000 people living with kidney disease. Since 2000, the company has been a leader in clinical quality, innovation, and operational excellence.
“This collaboration reinforces our shared commitment to innovation and improving lives,” said Carlos Escobar, General Manager, U.S., Vantive. “Together with U.S. Renal Care, we’re bringing advanced, connected solutions directly to the homes of more patients—empowering them and supporting the care teams who make these therapies possible.”
“This partnership aligns with our commitment to delivering innovative solutions that enhance patient care,” said Steve Nottingham, Chief Operating Officer, U.S. Renal Care. “Together, we are positioned to drive greater impact and improve the lives of the patients we serve.”
Agreement Highlights
Through this collaboration, U.S. Renal Care has adopted a suite of digitally enabled Vantive peritoneal dialysis (PD) products and advanced support services designed to strengthen patient care, streamline clinical workflows, and improve the home dialysis experience:
- Sharesource Connectivity Platform
A secure, two-way remote patient management system that allows U.S. Renal Care clinicians to monitor and act on patients’ treatment data throughout therapy. Using Sharesource, care teams can remotely personalize automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) therapy performed overnight while a patient sleeps and adjust prescriptions as needed to support optimal outcomes.
- Electronic Medical Record (EMR) Integration
Key treatment data from the Sharesource Connectivity Platform flows directly into U.S. Renal Care’s EMR system, giving care teams greater visibility into patients’ therapy. This integration provides data-driven insights to inform daily treatment decisions and supports the ongoing evolution of U.S. Renal Care’s home dialysis care model.
- PD Telecare Program
A proactive remote monitoring and support service for patients using Sharesource-enabled APD cyclers. During the critical first 90 days of therapy and beyond, Vantive’s dedicated PD Telecare nurses review treatment data, alerts, and trends to identify training needs or potential barriers to success. When technical issues arise, PD Telecare support representatives proactively reach out to patients, providing timely coaching and reinforcing techniques to help improve confidence, adherence, and long-term outcomes.
