The ethics of organ allocation policy questions concerning geography, age, and net benefit

Open All Close All

http://schema.org/description

  • "The laws and regulations governing organ transplantation in the United States mandate that organs be allocated to achieve two moral ideals: efficiency and equity. This paper considers the following policy questions: 1) should the significance of geography in organ allocation be further mitigated? 2) in deference to both equity and efficiency, should age be an explicit criterion in organ allocation? and 3) in deference to efficiency, should calculations of net benefit be included as a criterion in the allocation of kidneys, as well as other organs?"
