Integration of Health Equity in the Management of Patients with Chronic Kidney Disease.
Many social determinants of health contribute to the increase in kidney disease incidence, including race, the patient's home address, economic means, educational attainment, and access to health care services. Integrating health equity requires team collaboration, provider, health financing resources, patient education and empowerment, and supporting health policies to enhance health care delivery and save lives.
