Abstract

Analyzing the demand for dialysis care in Vermont over the next 10 years, Mathematica’s researchers found that demand will grow between 75 and 136 percent; most state dialysis centers will be oversubscribed by 2014 even with the addition of a new center in Newport; the addition of a Newport center aids in reducing travel time in some counties, but travel time would still exceed 60 minutes for a couple of counties (the standard specified in Vermont’s certificate of need guideline); and the number and proportion of patients projected to receive dialysis treatment out of state will increase steadily over time. Consequently, Vermont may have to consider further expansion of capacity to meet potential growth in demand.
