Our Story and Our Mission
Our Story
Our story began by listening to patients with chronic diseases. Patients have been telling their doctors that they cannot afford necessary treatments for their chronic conditions due to the limited availability of Chronic-Special Needs Plans in the market. Over 100 nephrologists decided to take actions and started Gold Kidney Health Plan. Their goal is to provide the needed coverage for patients with chronic diseases. Gold Kidney reduces patients’ cost share by offering Chronic-Special Needs Plans that offer low to no member costs for select treatments for chronic conditions.
Our care model is simple: removing patients’ barriers to care by empowering our physician partners to have full authority to direct the care for our chronically ill members. Gold Kidney’s patient-centric care approach integrates payor, provider, and care management technology to effectively improve patient outcomes and quality. At Gold Kidney, the patient’s well-being is our number one focus and priority.
