Kidney Donor Exchange
 
Once a donor is approved for the Living Donor Program, if they are not a match with the intended recipient, the donor and recipient can join The Living Donor Exchange Program.    It makes it feasible for the chosen recipient to receive a kidney

This represents a huge innovation in the healthcare industry.  It helps to ensure that more recipients are able to receive kidney transplants.  Since living donor kidneys last approximately 50% longer, OUI Works is committed to educating all communities about the Kidney Donor Exchange program.
