In 2022, we did fewer than 20,000 kidney transplants and discarded thousands more…. and it took nearly 30 million offers. Kidneys that reached patients were turned down twice as often compared to 2 years prior. #broken #kidney #allocation

Another way to think about this… how often does a kidney actually go to the person at the top of the allocation match run … well… not very often, it turns out

How inefficient is the new kidney allocation system in the US? the number of offers increased so rapidly that some centers were receiving > 100,000 offers per year. Is it any surprise that no one is paying close attention anymore?
