Currently, an estimated 50% of people diagnosed with kidney failure &#8220;crash&#8221; into dialysis\u2014starting treatment without warning in an emergency situation3. Crashing not only causes physical and emotional stress for patients but also it costs, on average, an additional $53,000 per patient in the first year of dialysis treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By creating CWOW using Google Cloud, DaVita has built a foundational platform that will enable seamless data sharing and increase collaboration between the company&#8217;s physician partners, hospitals, and internal care teams. Ultimately, the platform is designed to support DaVita&#8217;s mission to provide integrated kidney care that helps improve patient quality of life, and lower the cost of care. To effectively leverage this data, DaVita built CWOW on Cloud Spanner for scalable database management, BigQuery for analytics, and Vertex AI for AI and machine learning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Google is the right choice for DaVita \u2013 not only from a technical perspective, but also from a collaboration standpoint,&#8221; said Alan Cullop, DaVita&#8217;s Chief Information Officer. &#8220;Our vision for CWOW required a flexible collaborator that would be willing to iterate as we worked to address the unique needs of DaVita and kidney care. From early-stage architecture and infrastructure conversations, to AI, analytics and IT security, Google has added significant value every step of the way, and we look forward to the next stage of innovation as we continue to enhance the CWOW platform.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What You Should Know:&nbsp; &#8211; DaVita Inc. and Google Cloud are teaming up to
