OPOs and Donor Hospitals Working Together to Improve the CMS Organ Donation Rate
April 25, 2024 @ 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm• EST

New CMS Performance Metrics for OPOs went into effect in 2022. All OPOs will be evaluated using these new metrics in 2026, based on their performance in 2024. How are OPOs collaborating with donor hospitals to improve their CMS Organ Donation Rate? During this webinar, we will hear about innovative ways that OPO leaders and staff are leveraging data to educate and engage their hospital partners to maximize organ donation and eliminate missed opportunities to save more lives through organ transplantation.

  • Demonstrate an understanding of the donor hospital’s role in improving the CMS Donation Rate
  • Utilize data to engage hospital administrators in removing barriers to organ donation.
  • Identify goals to achieve Tier 1 donation rate status in 2024.
