That would be an ideal situation but someone with large amounts of money might be able to change the course of actions and big data probably could make this easier. Let say they scan their blood type, etc, then type in the condition and wait for an answer from the computer for further actions...
- triceratops 6y agoSomeone with an unlimited amount of money wouldn't be keeping an eye on emergency rooms if they desperately needed an organ. There are other places/organizations that will play ball.

- ladzoppelin 6y agoI know its scary but I think the above comments are correct. I thought the removal of some organs need to be very close to TOD and the ER doctor would need to know beforehand if the patient was able to be harvested for for said organs. Is that correct, sorry if its not?
- crooked-v 6y agoAny organ donation only comes into play after the declaration of legal death, at which point the body gets handed off. The ER doctor only cares inasmuch as it means that a different team than usual takes over on removing the body so he can get a different living patient in to be treated.
