Abstract: This is a request to revise the current Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) data collection associated with institutional (including transplant hospital, organ procurement organization, and transplant histocompatibility laboratory) and non-institutional (medical/scientific and public organization, business and individual) applications to meet or sustain requirements for OPTN membership. This request include adding two new data collection forms (Hope Act Variance Request and Kidney Paired Donation Pilot Program or KPDPP contact update form), three standalone forms (Primary Program Administrator, Primary Data Coordinator, and Additional Surgeon and Physician) for revised data collection, and a revision of organ-specific applications found in the Certificate of Assessment and Program Coverage Plan Membership Application (COA/PCP). The likely respondents are new and existing transplant hospitals, organ procurement organization, histocompatibility laboratories, medical/scientific organization, public organization, business and individual members.

Short Statement: Estimates are based on the number of OPTN members in each membership category (i.e., transplant center, OPO, histocompatibility laboratory) as of December 2, 2024, form submission volumes from January 1, 2023, to December 31, 2023, and average burden per response estimated by either a survey of OPTN members or consultation with OPTN committees. This is the most current and reliable dataset available at this time for estimating burden. In addition, one new form as added. Note: Although the "OPTN Membership Application Surgeon or Physician Log" shows up as a "new form" it was included in prior packages with the Membership Application forms (forms 1-10). We included it as a separate form here to make sure the IC list aligned with the burden table.
