Variation Across Organ Procurement Organizations in Deceased‐Donor Kidney Offer Notification Practices

Optimization of offer notification practices may reduce unnecessary communications. Further research into allocation processes is needed to identify opportunities to improve efficiency of allocation for OPOs and transplant centers.
