US Organ Donation Policy

In Reply In our Viewpoint on the success of opt-in organ donation policy in the United States, we reviewed organ donation rates from opt-in and opt-out legal jurisdictions to provide a high-level comparison between these 2 authorization strategies. The rate was calculated as donors per 10  000 deaths, not donors per potential eligible donor as incorrectly stated by Dr Wall and colleagues. Donors per deaths is the best available data for an international comparison.
