“…It is likely that the system in Singapore-in which most medical services, including pre-dialysis education, are mostly feefor-service, with only limited financial support from the government-may be hindering well-informed decisions. As shown in other settings, implementation of reimbursement is likely to improve patient knowledge of dialysis, thus helping to achieve an informed patient decision for a dialysis modality, which is linked to improved rates of PD uptake (14,47,49,50,53). However, more work is needed to document pre-dialysis education utilization rates in relation to PD uptake and penetration rates.…”

“…Carefully planned and timed pre-dialysis education is therefore critical in clarifying the misconceptions (46)(47)(48)(49)(50)(51). It is imperative to revisit or review how to best cater for the decisional support needs of patients and then to design patient resources and pre-dialysis programs that are sufficiently proactive to engage patients in making informed decisions about dialysis modality, while eliciting and targeting misperceptions and misunderstandings.…”

“…Once eligible patients are offered a modality choice, most studies suggest that approximately half will select PD (15)(16)(17)(18), and the question of how to define the modality chosen arises.…”
