Abstract

The National Kidney Disease Education Program (NDKEP) is a program of the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases at the National Institutes of Health. It seeks to increase awareness of CKD among high risk groups and primary care providers. The NKDEP is a response to the rapidly escalating incidence of ESRD in the United States in the face of new treatment to prevent and mitigate CKD. The hope is that awareness will lead to action, testing, and treatment.
