Kidney transplant is the most desirable option to treating ESKD-D, but remains unattainable for many AI\/AN persons, especially in rural South Dakota (SD). Additionally, palliative and hospice care options for AI\/AN with any serious illness in SD are largely inaccessible. Moreover, receiving kidney transplant potentially affects hospice referral because of the desire to prolong transplant function. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare hospice use rates among AI\/AN and non-Hispanic White (NHW) persons with ESKD-D prior to death and determine if differences in referral rates are present for those with and without a prior kidney transplant.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Retrospective cohort analysis of United States Renal Data System data from 2000-2021.
