Hospital Kidney Donor Minimum Standards Set
Hospitals Ordered To Do More to Protect Kidney Donors by Kevin Sack. The New York Times. November 13, 2012.
With 94,000 + people on the waiting list for kidneys, the United Network for Organ Sharing which manages the transplant system under federal contract has established minimum standards to bolster public confidence in the system. The number of donors has dropped 10 percent over the last two years with thousands dying on transplant list dying each year. The new standards will require hospitals to collect medical data, including laboratory tests, on donors to determine the effects of kidney donation.
