From Policy to Impact: Accelerating Early Detection for Kidney-Heart Health

Kidney disease affects 1 in 10 adults worldwide – around 850 million people – and can lead to serious complications such as kidney and heart failure.[1] Yet 9 out of 10 don’t know they have it until it’s too late.[2]

​Early detection can change this – protecting kidney and heart health, easing the burden on patients, their families, health systems, and economies alike. But how can we make this a reality for all?

​Join Boehringer Ingelheim and Healthy.io for an interactive panel covering:

  • Insights and strategies to accelerate policy implementation following the recent WHO Kidney resolution and the UN High-Level Meeting on NCDs
  • Patient perspectives on chronic kidney disease (CKD) policy – ensuring decisions are person-centered and responsive to real-world needs
  • The importance of strong primary care that addresses cardiovascular, kidney, and metabolic health in an integrated way
  • Scalable, real-world solutions for early CKD detection and their potential to reduce health disparities with improved outcomes and lower costs
