Honor Our Living Donors Act

What this bill does

  • This bill removes income limits based on organ recipients when determining if donors can get reimbursed for donation expenses.
  • Living organ donors are affected, as they may face fewer barriers to getting travel and incidental costs covered.
  • HHS must report on whether the program adequately funds donor expenses within a set timeframe.
