The Economics and Ethics of Alternative Cadaveric Organ Procurement Policies
The Economics and Ethics of Alternative Cadaveric Organ Procurement Policies Roger D. Blairt David L. Kasermantt Under the National Organ TransplantAct of 1984, organsuppliers-usually the famillies of critically injured accident victims-are not allowed to receive compensation in exchange for granting permission to remove the organs of their deceased relatives. This organ procurement regime is therefore driven solely by potential donors' altruism. Due to the growing nationwide shortage of transplantableorgans, the altruisticsystem has begun to draw considerable criticism. Focussing on the transplantationof kidneys, this Article challenges the theoreticaland economic underpinningsof the altruisticsystem by compar- ing it to two alternative policies: a market system that allows demand and supply to equilibrate at a positive price, and a system which transfers property rights in cadavericorgans from potential donors to recipients.Blair and Kaser- man subject these alternative policies to economic and ethical scrutiny, and conclude that the market system would not only generate the largest number of transplantablekidneys, but would also provide the greatest gain in overall social welfare.

Organ Procurement in Israel: Lessons for South Africa
RESEARCH Organ procurement in Israel: Lessons for South Africa M Slabbert,1 BA (Hons) HED, B Proc, LLB, LLD; B Venter,2 LLB, LLM 1 Department of Jurisprudence, University of South Africa, Pretoria, South Africa 2 Faculty of Law, Midrand Graduate Institute, Midrand, South Africa Corresponding author: B Venter ([email protected]) Modern medicine makes it possible to transplant not only kidneys but any solid organs from one human body to another. Although it is the ideal to harvest organs from a brain-dead person, a kidney or a part of the liver or lung can be transplanted from a living donor to a patient. The majority of countries where organ transplants are performed have a dire need for transplantable organs as the current systems of organ procurement are not obtaining a sufficient amount of transplantable organs. Today’s cruel reality is that many patients are dying while waiting for a transplant. Few nations are able to meet the organ demand through their domestic transplant systems and there is a constant debate about ethical ways of procuring organs for transplantation purposes. This article will scrutinise the Israeli system of organ procurement and it will be compared with the current system of organ donation in South Africa (SA) in order to indicate whether SA could possibly, or should, follow the example of Israel to improve its acute donor organ shortage.

National Council on Disability An independent federal agency making recommendations to the President and Congress to enhance the quality of life for all Americans with disabilities and their families. Letter of Transmittal September 25, 2019 The President The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President, On behalf of the National Council on Disability (NCD), I am pleased to submit Organ Transplants and Discrimination Against People with Disabilities, part of a five-report series on the intersection of disability and bioethics. This report, and the others in the series, focuses on how the historical and continued devaluation of the lives of people with disabilities by the medical community, legislators, researchers, and even health economists, perpetuates unequal access to medical care, including life- saving care. Organ transplants save lives. But for far too long, people with disabilities have been denied organ transplants as a result of unfounded assumptions about their quality of life and misconceptions about their ability to comply with post-operative care. -

Tchounwou Received: 25 February 2016; Accepted: 28 April 2016; Published: 30 April 2016 Abstract: This study aimed to develop a new Acceptance of Selfishness at the Workplace Scale (ASWS) and to confirm Maslow’s hypothesis of synergy: if both a sense of contribution and acceptance of selfishness at the workplace are high, workers are psychologically healthy. In a cross-sectional study with employees of three Japanese companies, 656 workers answered a self-administered questionnaire on paper completely (response rate = 66.8%). Each questionnaire was submitted to us in a sealed envelope and analyzed. The ASWS indicated high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.86). Significant (p < 0.001) positive moderate correlations between ASWS scores and job control scores support the ASWS’s convergent and discriminant validity. Significant (p < 0.001) associations of ASWS scores with psychological distress and work engagement supported the ASWS’s criterion validity. In short, ASWS was a psychometrically satisfactory measure. -
Incentivizing Organ Donor Registrations with Organ Allocation Priority
HEALTH ECONOMICS Health Econ. (2016) Published online in Wiley Online Library (wileyonlinelibrary.com). DOI: 10.1002/hec.3328 INCENTIVIZING ORGAN DONOR REGISTRATIONS WITH ORGAN ALLOCATION PRIORITY AVRAHAM STOLERa,*, JUDD B. KESSLERb, TAMAR ASHKENAZIc, ALVIN E. ROTHd and JACOB LAVEEe aDepartment of Economics, DePaul University and Coherent Economics, Highland Park, IL, USA bThe Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA, USA cIsraeli National Transplant Center, Tel Aviv, Israel dDepartment of Economics, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA eTel Aviv University Faculty of Medicine and the Heart Transplantation Unit, Sheba Medical Center, Ramat Gan, Israel ABSTRACT How donor organs are allocated for transplant can affect their scarcity. In 2008, Israel’s Parliament passed an Organ Transplantation Law granting priority on organ donor waiting lists to individuals who had previously registered as organ donors. Beginning in No- vember 2010, public awareness campaigns advertised the priority policy to the public. Since April 2012, priority has been added to the routine medical criteria in organ allocation decisions. We evaluate the introduction of priority for registered organ donors using Israeli data on organ donor registration from 1992 to 2013. We find that registrations increased when information about the priority law was made widely available. We find an even larger increase in registration rates in the 2 months leading up to a program dead- line, after which priority would only be granted with a 3-year delay. We also find that the registration rate responds positively to public awareness campaigns, to the ease of registration (i.e. allowing for registering online and by phone) and to an election drive that included placing registration opportunities in central voting locations. -
