Following an NKF led campaign, NHS England will be actioning reimbursement of additional utility costs for patients receiving home dialysis and there are systems in place to enable patients to reclaim these costs from their dialysis provider (NHS Trust).
NHS England is working with specialised renal hospitals to ensure that reimbursement processes are available for all patients undertaking home haemodialysis therapy. Hospitals are also being asked to set up a similar reimbursement mechanism for patients on peritoneal dialysis.
