This bill would allow Medicare to cover two new services for people with end-stage kidney disease who receive dialysis at home. The first is respite care, where trained staff come to the patient's home to help with dialysis so that regular caregivers can take a break. The second is mental health services related to kidney disease, also provided in the patient's home.
