Differential diagnosis of anemia based on conventional erythrocyte indices is limited, therefore it requires to be combined with other indices to determine iron deficiency. Reticulocyte hemoglobin equivalent (RET-He) is an alternative indicator of iron deficiency that is not affected by inflammation, and has been proposed as an additional marker for iron deficiency screening. &lt;strong&gt;Objective:&lt;/strong&gt; To determine the correlation between RET-He and erythrocyte indices (MCV, MCH, MCHC) in predialytic CKD patients.&lt;strong&gt; Method: &lt;/strong&gt;Cross-sectional retrospective study of predialytic CKD patient data in Prof. Ngoerah General Hospital, that were tested for RET-He and erythrocyte indices in January – March 2022. Data was collected from laboratory information system (LIS) and medical record. RET-He was measured with lightscatter flow cytometry method and erythrocyte indices was calculated.&lt;strong&gt; Result:&lt;/strong&gt; Sixty and three (63) study subjects were consisted of 37 men (58,7%) and 26 women (41,3%), with average of age was 60,68±10,52 years. The mean value of RET-He, MCV, MCH and MCHC was 30,55±2,86 pg, 89,08±7,78 fL, 28,76±2,72 pg, and 30,55±2,86 g/dL. Result of data analysis showed positive correlation between RET-He and MCV (r = 0,659), MCH (r = 0,734), and also between RET-He and MCHC (r = 0,383), with p &amp;lt; 0,05. &lt;strong&gt;Conclusion:&lt;/strong&gt; There was a significant positive correlation between RET-He with erythrocyte indices in predialytic CKD patients.&lt;/p&gt;
