Relationship among Length of Facility Ownership, Clinical Performance, and Mortality

[摘要] Background and objectives: The association between level of performance in achieving guideline-recommended clinical indicators and relative reduction in patient mortality is inconsistent among large dialysis organizations (LDOs). Because growth rates among providers differ, we reasoned that clinical performance and mortality rates in dialysis facilities may be related to length of facility ownership.
