McKee, Katie Mayo Clinic

Brief Bio

Katie McKee serves as transplant administrator for the Mayo Clinic Transplant Center in Rochester, MN. In this role, she supports incredible teams serving patients through solid organ transplant, bone marrow transplant, VCA and regenerative medicine. She is grateful for experiences working in organ donation with LifeSource, the organ procurement organization serving the upper Midwest, and hospital and surgical administrative leadership at HealthPartners in the Twin Cities.

Katie currently serves as Chair of The Alliance National Donation Leadership Council and as treasurer of several local public health boards. She is inspired by leaders across the entire donation & transplantation community working together on behalf of patients and donor families, and by The Alliance who continues to drive meaningful collaboration. She completed her master’s degree in public health from Columbia and administrative fellowship at Mayo Clinic.

Testimonial The Alliance is an inspiring leadership model for collaboration and community advancement at their best. The connections the Alliance fosters and promotes strengthen the community of donation and transplantation. The tools and education the Alliance develops and broadly shares are extremely relevant to the each part of the community. My team and I reference them often and share them especially with hospital partners on a regular basis.

Alliance Presentations

The Alliance SRTR 1

SRTR Annual Session: Using SRTR Data to Monitor Transplant Program Performance

Tuesday, January 23, 2024, at 2:00pm

The Alliance Conversation Series brings you cost-free, fast-paced collaborative opportunities that highlight successful donation and transplantation practices across the country. Through shared insight, multidisciplinary experts identify solutions to critical challenges affecting the community of practice and actively share them for open discussion and broader knowledge of effective practices.

The sessions encourage real-time feedback and participation from viewers.

Overview: This conversation series will focus on providing information to transplant program quality professionals on the various performance metrics made available by the Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients, with particular focus on the new metrics. The participant will learn where these metrics are made available or will be made available and will get a high-level overview of how to find and interpret the risk adjustment models that are used to adjust transplant performance metrics for candidate, recipient, and donor characteristics. After the core presentation, virtual breakout rooms will be set up to use the tools for your own centers and programs; individuals from SRTR will be available to assist you.

People Driven Transplant System Map – SRTR Task 5

Thursday, December 14, 2023, at 2:00pm

The Alliance Conversation Series brings you cost-free, fast-paced collaborative opportunities that highlight successful donation and transplantation practices across the country. Through shared insight, multidisciplinary experts identify solutions to critical challenges affecting the community of practice and actively share them for open discussion and broader knowledge of effective practices.

The sessions encourage real-time feedback and participation from viewers.

Overview: In July of 2022, SRTR hosted a multistakeholder consensus conference, often called the Task 5 conference, to identify information and metrics desired by stakeholders in the transplantation system. These stakeholders broadly included transplant patients/caregivers, living donors and deceased donor family members, transplant and OPO professionals, government agencies and others (payers, patient advocacy organizations, other allied organizations, researchers, and press).

SRTR’s People Driven Transplant System Map was designed as a guide for discussions during the conference to follow the patient experience through the complex process of organ donation and transplantation. Along the journey, helpful information and data were identified at specific points in the process.

In this session, we will take a closer look at the Map and hear how it relates to the larger SRTR Task 5 Initiative. We will explore how the Transplant System Map can be further utilized to guide development of tools and conversations with patients. We will also hear about how the Map can be tailored to specific situations and use cases. We will open discussion to new ways SRTR could support the transplant community with additional updates to the Map.
