Kidney Tech Alliance
A non-profit convening patients, clinicians, researchers, and technologists to accelerate ethical innovation in kidney care — with patient voice at the center of every decision.
Overview
How we work
Kidney disease affects hundreds of millions of people and is one of the most under-served areas of digital health. Kidney Tech Alliance exists to change that by building a community where patients shape the technology meant to serve them.
We convene working groups, publish open guidance, and partner with health systems and developers to ensure new tools meet a patient-defined bar for usefulness, safety, and equity.
