Illinois Kidney Care Alliance (IKCA) members are among the dialysis providers joining forces to protect some of society’s most vulnerable patients during the coronavirus pandemic.

DaVita, Fresenius, U.S. Renal Care, and American Renal Associates – IKCA members – are working together to create and share a nationwide network of clinics that will focus on serving patients with COVID-19.

As you may know, 30,000 people in Illinois suffer from kidney disease. When kidney disease progresses to kidney failure, patients are faced with two treatment options: dialysis three times per week or undergoing a kidney transplant. Especially given the current global pandemic, dialysis is not optional — it is essential.

The Illinois Kidney Care Alliance consists of community groups, advocates, health professionals, and businesses from across Illinois focused on raising awareness of the needs of people who suffer from kidney failure and their loved ones.
