Percentage of Prevalent Patients Waitlisted (PPPW)

This measure tracks the percentage of patients in each dialysis practitioner group practice who were on the kidney or kidney-pancreas transplant waitlist. Results are averaged across patients prevalent on the last day of each month during the reporting year.

Please note, this measure is at the dialysis practitioner level (the clinician who receives the Monthly Capitation Payment for overseeing dialysis care).

The proposed measure is a directly standardized percentage, which is adjusted for covariates (e.g. age and risk factors).
