Access to dialysis facilities in socioeconomically advantaged and disadvantaged communities
JAMA Internal Medicine
About The Study: This study found that as community disadvantage increased, access to dialysis facilities decreased in a stepwise fashion. Patients with end-stage kidney disease in socioeconomically disadvantaged communities had significantly fewer options for receiving hemodialysis and were more likely to live in areas without nearby dialysis facilities.
