Abstract
The rising prevalence of chronic kidney disease raises questions on the approaches that can be taken to decrease morbidity, mortality, and cost. Some measures that have been discussed suggest adequate control of chronic kidney disease (CKD) risk factors, such as diabetes and hypertension. Potential avenues of mortality and cost reduction such as early screening, a multidisciplinary model of care, and primary care involvement are discussed here.
