Panoramic Health, the Largest Physician-Led CKCC Participant, Drives Integrated, Value-Based Care to Patients with CKD-ESRD in South Texas through Its Partnership with San Antonio Kidney Disease Center

TEMPE, Ariz. – July 18, 2023Panoramic Health, the nation's leading integrated, physician-led, value-based kidney care platform announces its strategic partnership with San Antonio Kidney Disease Center (SAKDC), a distinguished nephrology practice serving South Texas. This collaboration marks Panoramic Health’s sixth partnership with leading nephrology practices in Texas within the last year. Panoramic Health is the premier clinically oriented, value-based care platform improving patient outcomes and slowing disease progression for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

Panoramic Health continues its rapid expansion in Texas through SAKDC and other recent partnerships with prominent nephrology practices including Renal Associates, P.A. (RAPA) and The Kidney Institute (TKI), extending their reach to a diverse population approaching 100,000 patients in key metropolitan areas such as Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio. This strategic partnership with SAKDC integrates Panoramic Health's industry-leading predictive analytics, clinical workflows, and holistic care coordination across SAKDC's offices.

As the country’s largest physician-led CKCC program participant, Panoramic Health is increasing access to holistic care at reduced costs for more than 30,000 Medicare beneficiaries in 18 Kidney Contracting Entities (KCEs) managing more than $1.5 billion in risk spending.

“We deeply appreciate our existing partnership with SAKDC in Panoramic Health’s CKCC program. Their swift recognition of Panoramic Health's value as a partner has allowed us to enter into a more comprehensive partnership beyond their original value-based care affiliation with us," stated Rocky Chanana, Senior VP of Business Development. "SAKDC will continue to maintain clinical autonomy while leveraging Panoramic Health's integrated, holistic, value-based care platform and support services, leading to improved patient outcomes, while enabling the nephrologist to remain at the center of care delivery.”

Panoramic Health's state-of-the-art tools and technologies, including its largest, real-time CKD database, powers predictive analytics and data-driven care interventions for patients in South Texas.

“This new partnership will further support our group’s mission to providing comprehensive and innovative patient-centered care to South Texas. We are committed to helping lead the nephrology community in collaboration with Panoramic Health as we transition to value-based care and population health management while further supporting kidney transplantation and innovative research for kidney disease,” said Dr. Wesley Calhoun, President of SAKDC.
