TY - JOUR T1 - EConomic barriers in organ transplantation AU - Drazner MH, King LP Y1 - 2008/06/04 N1 - 10.1001/jama.299.21.2512-a JO - JAMA SP - 2512 EP - 2512 VL - 299 IS - 21 N2 - Although it is true that economic status is not a factor in organ allocation once a potential recipient is on the waiting list, there are economic barriers to being placed on the waiting list.2 For patients of low socioeconomic status, including the uninsured, such barriers can occur at many steps3 and thereby lead to lower likelihood of receiving a transplant.
