KDIGO Grows Podcast Program and CME Collaboration

The Global Learning Collaborative (GLC) and Medtelligence expand a collaboration with KDIGO to improve patient outcomes through professional education for healthcare providers

Fort Washington, PA | December 6, 2023

Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) continues to grow its Conversations in Nephrology Podcast Series, which serves as a resource for clinicians caring for individuals with kidney disease.  

The collaboration involves long-time collaborators Medtelligence and ReachMD, two organizations that have partnered with KDIGO throughout the history of the podcast program.  The podcasts feature renowned global experts who address a wide range of topics and the latest scientific information available — from Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) to Early Identification and Intervention of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). In addition, the organizations are excited to announce a collaboration for developing and distributing CME activities to advance clinician knowledge and competence in the care of patients with kidney disease. 

ReachMD is a technology platform that helps healthcare professionals discover, participate in, and share medical education and clinical information through on-demand programming and broadcasts. Medtelligence conducts live and enduring medical education (CME) and independent medical education. 

“KDIGO is excited to continue our partnership with Medtelligence and ReachMD.”
