Liver Transplant: Access, Disparities and Allocation
Sun, Nov 8, 2026 · 5:00–6:30 PM MST Convention Center: Mile High Ballroom 2A-3A, Colorado Convention Center
About this session
This session examines the structural, geographic, and clinical factors that shape who gains access to liver transplantation and how organs are allocated. Presentations address disparities across the transplant continuum—from waitlist mortality risk and MELD-based allocation to the influence of public perception on donation—highlighting opportunities for more equitable practice. Together, these studies offer evidence to inform allocation reform and reduce inequities in transplant access.
