Focused support for kidney care needs
- Interwell Medical Group provides virtual care for patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) stages 3-5 who need additional support. Our expert team provides care through video and telephonic appointments to help ensure patients receive the care they need.
Building bridges to long-term kidney care
As part of the Interwell 360 patient care program, we offer services to CKD patients without a nephrologist. Interwell Medical Group provides focused care for patients while helping them find healthcare providers close to home. By partnering with a patient's care team, we can help deliver the best support possible.

For Providers
Strategic interim care management for you and your patients
Interwell Medical Group offers specialized interventions for CKD stage 3-5 patients who are unable to access timely care. Our virtual services are designed to provide crucial support during transitional periods, ensuring patients receive necessary care while they wait for access to local nephrology care. By addressing urgent clinical needs and optimizing care for patients, we aim to improve health outcomes and reduce hospital readmissions.
Patients we serve
- Who are without a nephrologist
- Who have recently been discharged from the hospital and are unable to see their provider in a timely manner
- Who were triaged by the Interwell Health Care Team
How we help
- Providing focused virtual interventions for CKD patients through comprehensive care visits that include nephrology care (for those patients without a nephrologist), medication optimization, post-hospital discharge follow-up, and lab ordering
- Transferring care to a local nephrologist as quickly as possible, ensuring the continuity of care for patients
- Ensuring follow-up care is provided in close collaboration between our clinical professionals and local providers, to ensure the best possible care outcomes

Opinions that matter
"Too often, at-risk patients with advanced CKD have limited access to timely care. Interwell Medical Group provides focused care for patients’ acute medical needs and, most importantly, provides a bridge to long-term care and support by transferring patients to a local provider as quickly as possible.”
- Dr. George Hart
Chief Medical Officer, Interwell Health
“Care from a nephrologist is a key determinant of health for people living with chronic kidney disease. By focusing on individuals who have not yet established care, Interwell Medical Group fills a critical gap in the healthcare system. We ensure patients receive timely interventions while seamlessly connecting them with local, in-market nephrologists."
- Jessica Demaline
Senior Vice President of Healthcare Operations, Interwell Health
