Never underestimate the value of #education. A small bit of information can help save kidneys, improve outcomes & save lives. 1. Diabetes damages kidneys. It is also a leading cause of amputations. Those are 2 reasons to watch the sugar & drop sugary drinks.

🙌 #Education saves lives and precious kidneys ❤️
Hey @CMSGov, you should expand benefits to cover #CKD education for patients with stage 3 CKD to prevent progression. You should also allow RNs to bill the CKD education G-codes to increase access. #patienteducation @ANNAnurses.

Thanks @mcuban. Inappropriate evaluation. Opposite=37 million people have chronic #KidneyDisease #CKD & only 10% are aware. Not many people care re the value of #education there despite the >$130billion 🏷. Yet there is a 1.38B virtual ecosystem that boasts a whopping DAU: 38 🤦🏿♀️
