Renal Disease Control Program (REDCOP) s
tarted as the Preventive Nephrology Project (PNP) of the Department of Health, in June 1994, with the National Kidney and Transplant Institute (NKTI) as the main implementing agency. 

PNP lasted from January 1994 to December 1999.  Towards the latter part of 1999, planning for the redirection of the PNP was done.  In January 2000, the Preventive Nephrology Project was renamed Renal Disease Control Program, through a Memorandum No. 67-D s. 2000 from the Department of Health (DOH).  REDCOP implements different projects/activities on kidney disease prevention  and control of end stage renal disease (ESRD) patients (health promotion, primary, secondary, tertiary), including prevention of death through transplantation and organ donation.
