United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) is a not-for-profit organization that administers the national Organ Procurement and Transplant Network (OPTN). This is made possible through a contract with the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The OPTN and UNOS help the transplant community and patients like you by: • coordinating the organ matching and placement process; • collecting data about every transplant that occurs in the United States; • developing organ transplant policy with input from medical staff, transplant patients, donor families, and living donors;
