Increasing Mobile Dialysis Service

The shift toward mobile and ambulatory care has increased significantly in recent years due to the increasing burden on healthcare services. Nowadays, dialysis services are available outside their homes. Mobile dialysis providers are rapidly increasing in developed countries. Increasing expenditure for dialysis services and the availability of mobile dialysis services show significant market growth opportunities. Mobile dialysis service providers give cost-effective solutions to patients as dialysis facilities.

In the US, Odulair LLC is a well-known mobile dialysis service provider organization that delivers several dialysis services annually in the U.S. It is a mobile medical manufacturer pioneer in building commercial mobile dialysis units in the U.S. and international markets. Mobile dialysis facilities are available in three forms: mobile dialysis clinic, mobile dialysis unit, and mobile dialysis facility.

These services provide short-term dialysis, hemodialysis, and peritoneal dialysis facilities. It is one of the cost-effective services available at off-site locations. It allows dialysis and other required solutions to be brought to care homes, low-income communities, and other healthcare services. Increasing kidney care facilities and a significantly rising patient population drive the high demand for these services. Moreover, mobile dialysis services are used in a state or federal disaster response.

Increasing Government Initiatives for Kidney Health

The growing concern related to kidney health has made the government and associated health authorities take one step forward to deliver a healthy life to people. In developed and developing countries, the increasing prevalence of chronic kidney disorders and end-stage kidney disorders significantly drives the demand for kidney care. Various government initiatives, such as patient-led and patient-centered advocacy, are included to improve kidney health by transforming patient dialysis outcomes.

In 2012, the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) and the US FDA established the Kidney Health Initiative (KHI) as one of the major organizations where the kidney communities can work collaboratively to understand the challenges in drug development, innovations, devices, biologics, and food products to improve the kidney health for those who have kidney conditions. It is one of the largest consortiums in the Kidney Community. In 2015, the Kidney Health Initiatives Project, which supported dialysis innovations, delivered lucrative market growth opportunities since its incorporation. Since 2015, the Kidney Health Initiative Patient & Family Partnership Council (PFPC) has been helping KHI stakeholders network and encourage kidney patients and patient organizations.

In addition, PFPC advises industry and research institute partners on patients' needs and preferences as innovative products are developed and planned. In 2020, the collaborative initiation between the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention and ASN aimed at identifying a complication inherent to contemporary dialysis infection. So, increasing government initiatives for kidney health positively impacts dialysis services and pushes for market growth.

Increasing Mergers & Acquisitions in Dialysis Service Sector

Several mergers and acquisitions have happened in the dialysis service industry in recent years. The most prominent market players acquired several small and mid-sized dialysis service providers for the business expansion. After the COVID-19 pandemic, significant changes happened in the market through mergers and acquisitions.

The dialysis service market has become increasingly concentrated through mergers and acquisitions. Currently, dialysis services are provided by multinational and well-established firms. The world's leading company, Fresenius Medical Care, entered into a significant acquisition in 2022. To create a premier value-based kidney care provider in the global market, the company took a major step in executing its growth strategy for 2025.

This major step will accelerate the transition to home dialysis services. Under this, the company decided to create a new company that combines the strength of 3 value-based care specialists. The company entered into a new agreement to develop an independent new company. This will unite Fresenius health partners, such as Fresenius Medical Care, with the U.S. Cricket Health leading patient engagement data platform and InterWell Health. This merger will help bring together the company's health partners with kidney care expertise. InterWell Health company has a strong network of 1,600 nephrologists. The new company will be combined with Fresenius Medical Care unit due to the majority owner and operating under InterWELL Health.

Complications Associated with Dialysis Services

In dialysis services, certain factors, such as the body's biological activities and some external factors, act as barriers that hamper the adoption of dialysis services. Dialysis volume, flow, composition, and dwell time are related to hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis.

Moreover, patients carry some challenges and complications for the dialysis services, such as a significant symptom burden, dietary intake and adherence to fluid, constraints to dialysis sessions, and a considerable pill burden, which hampers the market growth. In hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis services, some common and different challenges stand as a restraint and negatively impact the market growth.
