Plan for free dialysis at home -GS Mudur

-The Telegraph

It will be available free to below-poverty-line patients and at a cost to the rest

The Union health ministry has decided to provide peritoneal dialysis, a home-based alternative to haemodialysis that typically requires thrice weekly hospital visits, to patients with end-stage kidney disease across India under the National Dialysis Programme.

It will be available free to below-poverty-line patients and at a cost to the rest, just as haemodialysis is under the NDP.

The ministry has sent guidelines to the states and Union Territories, urging them to train staff and ensure the patients receive the special fluid used in peritoneal dialysis.

Nephrologists say peritoneal dialysis is a more attractive and less risky option for patients than haemodialysis.
