New Somatus Care Management Program for Patients with CKD/ESRD

Date: 06/28/21

Effective Aug. 1, 2021, Ambetter from Sunshine Health will partner with Somatus Inc., to establish a care management program for members with end-stage renal disease and chronic kidney disease. Some of your patients may qualify for this program.

Patient benefits include:

  • Care management of kidney disease and comorbidities
  • Instruction to better understand the condition, treatment options and diet
  • Help to transition from hospital to home
  • Guidance in transplant options

Social workers can help with transportation, food or other issues that limit the member’s compliance with treatment. 

Somatus will be in touch with providers about your eligible patients. If you have questions before they contact you, call Somatus at 1-855-851-8354 Monday-Friday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Eastern Time.
