Organ donor hospitals and transplant hospitals –how do they differ?

Donor hospitals are not subject to OPTN policies but transplant hospitals are. So who’s responsible for overseeing donor hospitals?

Organs shouldn’t be transported in airline cargo. Here’s why.

Federal regulations don’t prevent unaccompanied organs from flying above the wing – yet they’re being transported as cargo. The government agrees it can improve its communications to airlines and airports to clarify this.

How UNOS uses data to help transplant programs improve

UNOS uses the same process for data requests from the OPTN as any other entity and can provide aggregated, limited or patient-level information about a variety of subjects due to our deep knowledge and understanding based on decades of experience.
