Quality Improvement Activity (QIA) Overview
The 2020 Statement of Work requires all ESRD Networks to support the initiatives detailed in the Advancing American Kidney Health (AAKH) Executive Order signed on July 10, 2019. To support this initiative, the 2020 Modality QIA aims at promoting early referral of patients to transplant and home modalities. The quantitative goal is to increase the rate of patients that begin training for a home modality by at least 2.5% based on the baseline rates from October 2019.
