KHC is one of the largest independent nephrology practices in Cincinnati, Ohio. According to its website, the practice has 34 physicians and 11 nurse practitioners on staff. KHC treats roughly 2,500 stage 4 and stage 5 chronic kidney disease patients and more than 1,700 end-stage kidney disease patients out of 23 locations. 

Panoramic Health is a physician-led kidney care organization. Panoramic Health’s Clinical Research division partners with sponsors and clinical research organizations to bring treatments to patients with kidney disease. 

This represents the first Panoramic Health integrated provider group partnership in Ohio and its first acquisition of the year. The financial terms of the partnership were not disclosed.
