- senkora 1y agoThe Organ Procurement Organizations are separate entities and have their own incentives. It’s their representatives who are pushing for organ retrieval in dubious cases.

- triceratops 1y agoYeah that's not great. Why do procurement organizations have "incentives" at all? Are employees there actually getting compensated on number of transplants performed? That's a bit gross IMO. It's a non-profit. You work there for a below-market salary and a feeling of doing something good in the world.
