Yuvaram Reddy, MBBS, MPH is a nephrologist and implementation scientist dedicated to narrowing disparities in home dialysis use for patients with kidney failure. Dr. Reddy’s research focuses on 1) understanding and addressing barriers to home dialysis, and 2) evaluating the impact of health policy in kidney disease. Through an LDI pilot fund, he partnered with the payment insights team to study the impact of the ESRD Treatment Choices model on health equity (for context, this Medicare payment model is the largest randomized controlled trial in US history to incorporate a health equity incentive). His research draws from methodologies in health services research and implementation science and has been funded by the NIH, AHRQ, PCORI, VA, LDI, and the American Society of Nephrology.
