Kidney Health Evaluation for Patients With Diabetes (KED)

This measure evaluates members 18 to 85 years of age with diabetes (type 1 and type 2) who received a kidney health evaluation, defined by an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and a urine albumin-creatinine ratio (uACR) during the measurement year.
