Overview: This conversation series will focus on providing information to transplant program quality professionals on the various performance metrics monitored by the OPTN’s Membership and Professional Standards Committee. The participant will learn where these metrics are 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 Hennepin Healthcare Research Institute will be available to assist you.
