Mission

SINCE 1973, THE MISSION HAS BEEN TO MAKE LIFE BETTER FOR THOSE WITH KIDNEY DISEASE BY SUPPORTING RESEARCH, PROVIDING EDUCATION, AND ENSURING ACCESS TO CARE FOR THOSE AFFECTED.

About

Kidney Dialysis In-Center Chronic Kidney Disease ("CKD") is a public health problem in the United States that impacts approximately 26 million Americans. It is well known that hypertension and diabetes are two leading causes of kidney failure. The 2018 United States Renal Data System Report shows that over 726,331 Americans who live with End Stage Renal Disease ("ESRD"), close to 72% are treated by dialysis. Satellite Healthcare owns and operates 81 in-center hemodialysis facilities (Satellite Dialysis) and home dialysis training centers (WellBound) providing a variety of treatment options to our patients. In 2018, Satellite Healthcare provided over 1,461,076 dialysis treatments and services to over 8,050 patients in California, Texas, Indiana, Illinois, New Jersey, and ennessee. Peritoneal Dialysis and Home Hemo Center: WellBound, a Satellite Healthcare company, is the first healthcare services company to specialize in the delivery and support of daily home dialysis therapies through free-standing, patient-friendly Centers of Excellence. Our unique care model is built on the premise that early-stage patient education is the first step in an effective treatment program. As such, we dedicate significant resources to reaching patients before they require dialysis. Once dialysis is required, WellBound's goal is to enable nephrologists to easily offer self-care (home) dialysis therapies to their patients. We strive to empower patients to take charge of their health and experience the clinical and quality of life benefits associated with self-care dialysis.

As a company and as individuals, Satellite teams donate money, time, and talent to help those with kidney disease live the best, most joyful life possible.
