Share organ is the second kidney from a donor hospital and any other organ it is unable to utilize, that is allocated to another hospital. Please ensure that there is 24 hour availability of your transplant coordinator to interact with the Convenor.
When a Share organ is offered to a particular recipient on your list, contact that recipient immediately, arrange all logistics and convey your acceptance of the offer within one hour. Offer would expire if not accepted within one hour. If the Convenor alerts that one or your recipients shows up as second in the priority for allocation, alert that person and be ready to accept the offer within 45 minutes should a firm offer be made subsequently. (Not accepting an offer will not detract the Recipient from prioritization in subsequent offers.)
It is your responsibility to interact with donor hospital to obtain all information you need to assess the suitability and match of organ with your recipient. It is also your responsibility to send a team to the donor hospital to retrieve organ, preserve it and bring back for transplantation.
If you are a private hospital and receive the Share organ from a non-transplant donor hospital or from a transplant hospital that does not utilize even one organ from that donor, you need to defray the cost of maintaining the cadaver at the donor hospital from the time the family gave consent for organ donation. Inform the Convenor as soon as the surgery is over and send a fuller recipient report to him through the online form at http://dmrhs.org within 48 hours of discharge of patient. Send him also a monthly statement of the cadaver organ transplants done.
