This would dramatically increase the number of non-elective surgeries and general billable procedures. It's a vast, untapped market. Hospital wings for organ transplants will sprout like weeds. Great idea. Prepare the direct mail campaign.
/me spent too much time around surgeons and GPs during their lunch hours recently.
edit: I didn't want to say it, but I wonder where this began. It's easy to get recipient families on-board but I'm guessing that wasn't the source.
Want more organs from voluteers? Pay. Give donors a cut. (heh)
