UNOS continues to support new, existing clients with unparalleled business solutions

While the federal government shutdown has paused some of UNOS’ functions as a contractor for the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to support operations of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN), it has not affected the rest of our portfolio of work. UNOS continues to provide professional services, develop technology solutions and support clients without disruption.

A significant portion of UNOS’ workforce is dedicated to supporting our clients with products and solutions ranging from data analytics and research to predictive modeling and data visualization tools, among many others.

For the past month, we have been rolling out upgrades to our suite of UNOS tools for transplant hospitals. These upgrades make their work faster and more efficient, and enable more informed decision-making.

Planning for our 2026 Transplant Management Forum (TMF) conference in Atlanta continues uninterrupted, and we are excited to once again host the largest annual event focused on collaboration between transplant administrators, clinical and financial coordinators, social workers, OPO executive directors, physicians, surgeons and industry allies. This year’s TMF theme is “Transplantation for Tomorrow: Where Innovation Meets Action,” with an agenda focused on how changes in system structure, policy and emerging technologies can be channeled into positive impacts on donation and transplantation. There are still opportunities to sponsor and participate at TMF at a variety of levels. For more information, contact Devin Holland at [email protected].

Despite ongoing challenges due to the federal government shutdown in our work with the federal government to support OPTN operations as part of our contract with HRSA, UNOS’ broader operations remain intact, and our workforce remains committed and strong. As UNOS continues urging lawmakers to quickly settle on a funding solution to reopen the government, we are ready and able to continue working with new and existing partners to advance the field of organ transplantation and improve patient outcomes.
