Explore the value-added benefits your dialysis program can attain by partnering with Fresenius Medical Care.

Acquisitions

As the leading provider of innovative dialysis services and products, we share your commitment to deliver the highest standard of medical care to CKD and ESRD patients.

Enhance the services you currently provide your patients by affiliating with Fresenius Medical Care North America. For nearly a quarter-century, the acquisition program has helped to keep FMCNA the leading provider of dialysis services in the United States. This success has been achieved through working with local and regional providers, and navigating integration into a larger network that supports the local mission.

We recognize that community relationships are vital in the care of ESRD patients who rely on their physicians and the local dialysis facility staff to provide their complex dialysis prescription.

Value-added benefits for your staff

Fresenius Medical Care is highly sensitive to maintaining the facility’s established profile as a quality healthcare service. Staff are given positions with comparable levels of responsibility and compensation, to the extent reasonably possible, and receive credit for years of service to the program to become vested in benefits offered by Fresenius Medical Care.

Value-added benefits for your patients

In addition to maintaining local relationships, local programs can benefit from working with the world's leading provider of dialysis equipment and services. These technological advantages are part of Fresenius Medical Care’s Ultracare® program, which provides guidance to staff on policies and procedures that assure their patients Experience Excellence Every Day. Excellent patient outcomes and developing relationships within the community are the cornerstones of our mission.

How does the process work?

The Acquisition Group will guide the entire process, from follow-up of initial explorations by the provider or their agents, through the following key steps:

  • Negotiation of a Confidentiality Agreement
  • Collection of key program information
  • Ongoing negotiations related to the terms of a proposed transaction
  • Signing of a "Letter of Intent"
  • Due diligence
  • Closing documents
