Unfortunately the provided search results don't contain information about Social Security benefits eligibility for people with end-stage renal failure. However, this is an important question that deserves a proper answer.

It would be best to:
1. Contact your nephrologist or social worker for guidance
2. Visit the Social Security Administration website (www.ssa.gov)
3. Call the Social Security Administration directly at 1-800-772-1213
4. Speak with a disability attorney who specializes in kidney disease cases What we do know from the search results is that end-stage renal disease (ESRD) is Stage 5 kidney disease, defined by kidney function (eGFR) less than 15%. This severe level of kidney dysfunction typically requires dialysis or transplant for survival, which can significantly impact a person's ability to work.
