Each year, the individuals and organizations in the U.S. organ
donation, procurement, allocation, and distribution system work
together to provide transplants to many thousands of people, but
thousands more die before getting a transplant due to the ongoing
shortage of deceased donor organs and inequitable access to
transplant waiting lists. Realizing the Promise of Equity in the
Organ Transplantation System, a new consensus study report from the
National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine?s
Committee on A Fairer and More Equitable, Cost-Effective, and
Transparent System of Donor Organ Procurement, Allocation, and
Distribution, provides expert recommendations to improve fairness,
equity, transparency, and cost-effectiveness in the donor organ
system. Table of Contents Front Matter Summary 1 Introduction and
