At-a-glance
Allocation of all Vascularized Composite Allograft (VCA) organs that were originally scheduled to move into UNet in Spring 2023, will now implement on Sept. 14.
Additional details
There is no action needed from members at this time. More information will be sent to members in the coming months, including educational resources for getting started in UNet, security administrator roles and responsibilities and offerings specific to VCA organs. Learn more about the VCA committee’s projects in development.
Every time data collection changes, the OPTN must submit all data collection forms to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval prior to implementation. Parts of this release are included in the current OMB package which were originally planned for release in May 2023 pending OMB approval. This date has been updated to Sept. 14, 2023, to provide additional time for members to prepare for the changes and to ensure a smooth integration of our systems.
