Description

Brief Excerpt from Industry Overview Chapter:Companies in this industry provide outpatient kidney dialysis services. Major companies include US-based DaVita Dialysis Clinic and US Renal Care, along with Fresenius Medical Care and B Braun (both based in Germany).COMPETITIVE LANDSCAPEDemand depends on the number of people who suffer from kidney disease. The profitability of individual companies is linked to efficient operations and good marketing. Large companies have economies of scale in administrative costs, which has driven consolidation in the industry. Small operators can compete successfully if they have centers in desirable locations or good relations with doctors who refer patients. The US industry is highly concentrated: the 50 largest firms account for more than 95% of revenue.PRODUCTS, OPERATIONS & TECHNOLOGYAdvanced chronic kidney disease, also called end-stage renal disease (ESRD), involves irreversible loss of kidney function and requires regular dialysis treatment or a kidney transplant to sustain life. Scarcity of available donor kidneys limits the number of transplants, so most ESRD patients rely on dialysis treatments. Dialysis is not a cure but a blood-filtering process that prolongs life through the removal of toxic waste products and excess fluids from the body. ESRD patients must undergo dialysis for the rest of their lives. Major revenue source is from patient care, related to ICD-10 major category.

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
