The public is receptive to the idea of rewarding organ donors. It's time to leverage that receptivity.

The government should devise a safe, regulated system in which would-be donors are offered incentives to donate a kidney.

The National Kidney Foundation's recalcitrance on financial incentives for organ donors is hurting the very constituency it purports to serve.

Many of the quandaries that plague transplant medicine flow from the need to ration scarce resources.

Reducing end-of-life costs will do little to curb the growth in Medicare spending overall. But end-of-life care provision should be reformed to match the values of patients.

Eleven Americans die each day because they cannot get a kidney transplant. The best way to provide more kidneys is tocompensate donors.

Instead of letting thousands die each year while waiting for an organ transplant, we should test the market’s ability to meet the demand.

The imperative to innovate and experiment is great because altruism alone cannot solve the problems of the organ donation system.
