Abstract
Bone Health ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes) is a virtual community of practice with the aim of enhancing global capacity to deliver best practice skeletal healthcare. The prototype program, established at the University of New Mexico, has been meeting online weekly since 2015, focusing on presentation and discussion of patient cases. These discussions commonly cover issues that are relevant to a broad range of patients, thereby serving as a force multiplier to improve the care of many patients. This is a case report from Bone Health ECHO about a patient with stage 5 chronic kidney disease, hypercalcemia, and low bone density, and the discussion that followed.
