The U.S. SNF based dialysis market size is expected to reach USD 4.5 billion by 2030, expanding at a CAGR of 6.22%. The growth of the market can be attributed to the rising prevalence of ESRD patients in the U.S. and the growing number of on-site hemodialysis providers.
Many skilled nursing facilities (SNFs) are collaborating with the on-site dialysis providers such as DaVita Kidney Care, Fresenius Medical Care, U.S. Renal Care, Inc., Dialysis Clinic, Inc., and American Renal Associates to offer these services to their residents and bypass the expensive and stressful transportation. For instance, in July 2022, Dialyze Direct, a home hemodialysis service provider in SNFs, collaborated with the CommuniCare Family of Companies to provide on-site hemodialysis services at their facilities across the U.S.
The on-site hemodialysis care model is growing involving collaborations between SNFs and dialysis providers to offer on-site treatments at SNFs for residents. This can be attributed to the rising awareness regarding the benefits of on-site dialysis over in-center. Dialysis is usually the best option for ESRD patients waiting for transplantation. On-site hemodialysis offers treatment three times higher than daily dialysis patients. According to Concerto, on-site dialysis services require 17% less treatment time than traditional off-site services.
The COVID-19 pandemic increased the demand for on-site hemodialysis services at SNFs owing to social distancing issues during the transportation of patients. Hence, SNFs have collaborated with on-site dialysis providers. As per the annual report of the U.S. Renal Data System 2020, Medicare expenditure for ambulance services to transfer patients between skilled nursing and dialysis facilities reached more than USD 310 million per year, accounting for more than 1% of total Medicare expenditure on dialysis patients.
