Program Description:
Provides direct financial assistance to kidney patients in need. Educates kidney patients, their families and the general public about kidney related disease, prevention and treatment.
Through the Health Insurance Premium Program (HIPP), the American Kidney Fund pays Part B Medicare, Medigap, commercial, and COBRA premiums for dialysis patients who have insufficient income and savings. These premium payments allow patients to continue their health insurance coverage, enabling access to physician care and medical treatment.
HIPP is funded 100% by voluntary contributions from dialysis providers. HIPP serves as a last resort source of financial assistance. If you have any questions, contact the Patient Services Department at 1-800-795-3226.
Offers grants for a variety of issues faced by renal patients an their family. Call the Helpline for full information.
