No financial arrangements can be made for donated organs. Is this statement correct?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Only for the procurement process
• D. Only for the shipment

Answer: (B)

Organ donation is governed by rules that prohibit paying for an organ itself, ensuring donations are not commodified. At the same time, it allows reimbursement of reasonable expenses related to the donation, such as travel, lodging, meals, lost wages, or other costs directly tied to the donation process. Because of these reimbursements, the statement claiming no financial arrangements can be made for donated organs is not correct. The process ensures donors aren’t paid for the organ, but legitimate expenses incurred to donate can be covered.
