Mission Control Satellite Healthcare, and each of its divisions and affiliates, is led by experienced and dedicated professionals that operate from the same patient-centered core values contained in the original founding vision and reinforced over the past three decades. Among those core values is the commitment to foster research, innovation and high standards of care within the medical community. This commitment is being realized through our research, capital, laboratory services and dialysis operations. Synergy At Work Although each Satellite company functions autonomously, Satellite Healthcare's goal is to leverage those capabilities, create synergies and maximize their potential toward a common mission. For example, intramural research initiated by Satellite Research, allows access to a large patient database to conduct clinical trials, including electronic access to the clinical outcomes data on some 1500 patients of Satellite Dialysis. Another example of Satellite Healthcare synergy at work can be seen in the organization's unique Net Nutrition Web-based service. Developed by Satellite Dialysis in conjunction with Satellite Laboratory Services, Net Nutrition is the only Web-based tool designed to automate and improve the renal dietitian's ability to comply with the K-DOQI guidelines. With Net Nutrition, renal dietitians can perform Kt/v calculations, the industry preferred outcomes measurement of dialysis effectiveness, in a fraction of the time associated with any other available option. Satellite Research and Capital leverage synergies through early stage investments in research and commercial development, that foster innovation and improvements to the healthcare system. Satellite Laboratory Services supports the overall mission by providing its innovative and high-quality services to independent clinicians in dialysis facilities across the country. And; Satellite Dialysis is where the culmination of Satellite's research and service expertise are delivered directly to the organization's bottom-line: the patients with kidney disease.
