Patients aged 65 years or older enrolled in Clinformatics Medicare Advantage are primarily white, about a third of patients are of any other race/ethnicity.
 
Chart Explanation: The chart shows the distribution of race/ethnicity by year, by age, and by year and gender. The y-axis (vertical line) shows the percentage of patients. The x-axis (horizontal line) shows the race/ethnicity groups by either year, age groups, or year and gender.
The Clinformatics Medicare Advantage dataset provides paid medical and prescription claims and enrollment information for participants in Medicare Advantage plans of a large U.S. managed care health insurance company.

CKD is defined using ICD-9-CM or ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, and ESRD is based on International Classification of Diseases (ICD) diagnosis, Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) procedure, and Diagnosis Related Group (DRG) codes in Clinformatics Medicare Advantage.

Limitations of IndicatorThe use of an ICD-9-CM or ICD-10-CM diagnosis code as a measure of prevalence, will underestimate the level of chronic kidney disease in the general population.
Analytical ConsiderationsIn published literature, CKD is diagnosed by ICD-9-CM or ICD-10-CM codes in alternate ways (one outpatient, two or more outpatients or one inpatient claim). Care must be taken in comparisons.
