EU funding for health has been in decline. Yet, the burden of NCDs, including CKD, is not easing, and EU action on health is invaluable. As the EU’s new financial framework is being shaped, we strongly recommend a sensible balance between healthcare and other focus areas.

Eurostat: 83% of the EU's population lived near a hospital in 2023, but disparities remain. In 97 regions, home to 25M, less than half had access within 15 mins. Access is critical for kidney patients who need timely care. We must ensure equitable healthcare access.

Kidney disease, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease are closely linked. Diabetes can damage kidneys and increase CVD risk. Kidney disease can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease. These conditions share many risk factors. Let's raise awareness!
