NEW ORLEANS — In this video interview from the Annual Renal Physicians Association Meeting, Timothy A. Pflederer, MD, FASN, FASDIN, discusses the role the association plays in the daily life of a nephrologist.

“It really is necessary to have an organization that understands coding and billing; that understands the fee schedules; that can advocate for the physician fee schedule, for the ambulatory surgery fee schedule and hospital outpatient department schedules; that can ensure that nephrology is represented, so that our patients always have access to innovations that come along,” Pflederer, the president of the association, said.
