Frequently Asked Questions

Is home dialysis safe?

Yes. Home dialysis is a well-established, FDA-regulated treatment used by thousands of patients. Our team provides thorough training and ongoing remote monitoring to ensure your safety at every step.

Will I need a caregiver?

Many patients do home dialysis independently after training. However, having a care partner can make the process easier, especially in the early weeks.

How long does training take?

Training typically takes 2 - 6 weeks depending on the modality you choose. Our team works at your pace until you feel fully confident.

What equipment do I need at home?

We supply and install all necessary equipment β€” including the dialysis machine, and supplies. We also help you determine any storage solutions needed for your treatment.

Does insurance cover home dialysis?

Most insurance plans, including Medicare, cover home dialysis treatments. Our team can help verify your specific coverage during your consultation.

Can I switch modalities later?

Yes. Your care plan isn't permanent. If your needs or lifestyle change, we'll work with you and your nephrologist to adjust your treatment plan.
