Kidney Paired Donation Webinar Series Continues; Session 3 is June 20


Are you interesting in Kidney Paired Donation but don’t know how to get started? Is the OPTN Kidney Paired Donation program a mystery to you? Are you one of the many transplant centers participating in the OPTN KPDPP but don’t know where to begin? Are you looking to hear about best practices in KPD finances, tissue typing, and logistics?

Many kidney transplant programs around the country have questions about KPD. A UNOS-sponsored webinar series has some answers:

Demystifying the OPTN Kidney Paired Donation Pilot Program

June 20; 2-3:15 p.m. (EDT): Managing unacceptable antigens – registration available soon (details below)
Access a recording of the KPD basics webinar (held March 21)
Access a recording of the financing KPD webinar (held April 19)
July 25; 2-3 p.m. (EDT): Navigating the logistics of KPD
The goal of the four-part webinar series is to boost participation in the KPD pilot program, and ultimately to increase the number of living donor kidney transplants.
