We match you to transplant centers that fit you.


For the first time in history, America’s transplant center eligibility criteria will be in one place for patients and donors

3 Simple steps.
Life-changing outcome.

1. Share your medical profile & preferences

Tell us your medical status and preferences, such as travel ability and types of kidneys you’d accept. It takes under 15 minutes when you share your electronic health record, HIPAA secured.

2. Get matched to the right transplant centers for you

Based on your preferences and clinical profile - along with intelligent matching from historical data - our infrastructure identifies the transplant hospitals for which you are likely eligible and best fit your needs.

We also provide strategic multi-listing considerations based on shorter wait times, organ availability and outcomes.

3. Prepare for your transplant center application

Your dashboard shows what's complete and what's missing — so your application is fully ready for your evaluation at the transplant centers you choose.

  • "So many of us have no idea how to even go about how to apply to other places…For me, my BMI is an issue here, but not in other places, and I don’t know how to go about rectifying that. So I’ve been on dialysis for 10 years and have just given up. This will definitely open up access for people. This will help me get my foot in the door of a place where I don’t even know how to open the door.”

  • “Narrowing down the best transplant hospital for my particular health needs as a living donor would be critical, I have had previous stomach surgeries so only certain hospitals will consider me to donate. To know which ones would help me in my journey to donate a kidney.”

  • “We all have these bad relationships with the transplant coordinators. You can never get one on the phone. The social workers are at four different dialysis centers so you can never make that contact. Not only will this clear up discrepancies about our information, but it can help expedite the whole process because a lot of times, we don’t know where we are on the list.”

More Eligible Referrals

Patients are pre-screened against your center's specific eligibility criteria before they ever reach your desk. Also understand immediately the patient’s willingness to take higher KDPI kidneys and other preferences.

Less time on intake

Fewer inappropriate referrals means your team spends less time on ineligible evaluations and more time on patients who are a genuine fit for your program.
