Key Themes and Sessions to Watch

This year's agenda is built around resilience, transformation, and technology. Here are a few standout themes.

Value-Based Care in Kidney Health

Several sessions highlight the shift toward value-based models, including reimbursement strategies, clinical performance, and patient experience metrics. PDi supports this transformation by offering patient-facing technology like GENiO that enhances comfort, delivers on-demand education, and streamlines staff workflows. These are all crucial to meeting value-based goals. Kidney and dialysis clinics heavily use our patient displays and mounting arms.

Technology and Operational Efficiency 

From EHR integration to remote patient monitoring, this year's event dives into how dialysis providers can modernize operations without overwhelming staff. PDi is excited to learn more, since our integrated patient TV platforms reduce repetitive staff tasks and empower patients with timely information and entertainment, right at the chairside or bedside.

Staffing & Workforce Solutions

Sessions on burnout and staffing retention are popular this year. When patients are informed, entertained, and empowered, clinicians spend less time troubleshooting and more time focused on clinical care. This particular topic is talked about a lot here at PDi, which is why we develop technology that helps to reduce staff workload and scale how you interact with patients using our flagship devices and software management.

Since 1980, PDi has proudly served the dialysis market including leaders like DaVita and Fresenius Medical Care.  More recently, we are happy to partner with the industry leader in nursing home dialysis, Concerto Renal Services, to build complete lifesaving dialysis services within the senior care facilities.

Why This Conference Matters in 2025

Healthcare policy, technology, and patient expectations are evolving fast. The 2025 RHA Annual Conference offers the kidney care community a space to align around shared challenges. Staffing shortages, and payment reform to health equity are hot topics today, and it's more than a learning opportunity, it's a call to action.

PDi is proud to support providers navigating this changing landscape with technology built to serve both patients and staff. We believe that better experiences lead to better outcomes. It starts at the chairside.
