1, the intermediate cost of human organ donation, like natural water, is a natural product without spending money. But when we go to the supermarket to buy water, we have to charge a certain fee. This money is not only the water fee, but also the cost of processing, packaging, antivirus and storage. The same is true of organ transplantation. Each process involves a lot of expenses, such as harvesting, implantation, preservation, transportation and operation. Hospitals and doctors are not charitable, so the money must be paid by the recipients.
2. Relevant regulations In official website, China Human Organ Donation Management Center, there was a question and answer about the donation of remains, including the question about the recipient's payment. Organs are donated for free, and we belong to the recipients. It seems that we are giving away one and receiving another. In fact, there is a very complicated process. In addition to intermediate storage and transportation, collection and implantation require surgery. Organ transplantation is also a major operation to a certain extent, and there will be a lot of expenses in the middle.
3. No extra charge is allowed. Although certain medical expenses are charged, the relevant departments also have regulations that hospitals should not charge extra. If we have questions about hospital charges, we can ask for an inspection, and there will usually be a list. If you think the price is expensive, you can also report or complain. Hospitals suspected of breaking the law will be severely punished by relevant departments. Organ transplantation is clearly stipulated in our country, and no one is allowed to trade it. However, as a recipient, we should also understand it properly. After all, some expenses have to be paid by ourselves.
