More about CKD
Kidney diseases are a leading cause of death in the U.S., according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. About 37 million adult Americans are estimated to have CKD, and most are undiagnosed.
BCBSOK tracks the quality measure Kidney Health Evaluation for Patients with Diabetes to help improve quality of care. KED applies to members ages 18 to 85 with diabetes (type 1 or type 2) who received a kidney health evaluation. An evaluation is defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate and a urine albumin-creatinine ratio during the measurement year.
