Organ donation rates: How the US stacks up

June 20, 2013

But not all countries require that people who choose to donate organs register as organ donors at the Department of Motor Vehicles or online as we do here. Some countries have opt-out systems in which citizens are presumed organ donors unless they formally opt not to donate their organs when they die. Other countries even offer incentives such as payment for living kidney donations or preferred treatment for donors if they ever need to become a transplant recipient. (ABC News)
