        <Explanation>Midwest Transplant Network (MTN) first began operation as Midwest Organ Bank in 1973. Initially incorporated as a not-for-profit, community-based tissue typing laboratory and kidney recovery program by physicians dedicated to the care and treatment of end stage renal disease patients, we became one of the nation's first independent organ procurement organizations. After the passage of the 1984 National Organ Transplant Act, the Health Care Finance Administration (HCFA) certified our organization as an organ procurement organization (OPO) and designated an exclusive service area that included the state of Kansas and more than 60 counties in central and western Missouri. Within this donation service area (DSA), we serve a population of 5.1 million and have service contracts with approximately 240 hospitals. Six of those hospitals are transplant centers and include Children's Mercy Hospital, Research Medical Center, Saint Luke's Hospital, University Hospital &amp; Clinics of Missouri, Via Christi Medical Center, and University of Kansas Hospital. At the urging of hospitals in our area, we expanded the scope of services to include tissue and eye recovery and in 1999 changed our name to Midwest Transplant Network to better describe the expanded nature of the services provided. MTN is a member of the United Network for Organ Sharing and participates in the Organ Procurement and Transplant Network that is overseen by the Health Resource Services Administration. Governance to the organization is provided by a board of directors which is comprised of business leaders, physicians, and members of the community. An advisory board composed of individuals with experience and expertise in donation, transplantation, healthcare and other disciplines provides advice to the governing board for specific areas of policy development. General responsibility for the organization is delegated to the Chief Executive Officer. MTN's primary purpose is to facilitate the organ and tissue donation process when a person dies at a hospital within the service area. In accordance with legal and regulatory requirements, MTN's highly trained staff work with physicians to evaluate the potential for donation of organs, tissues and eyes to determine if they are suitable for transplantation, research or medical study. Appropriate consents or authorizations are obtained and the process to complete the recovery of donated gifts is initiated. After death is pronounced, the potential donor is treated to ensure that organ function is maintained prior to recovery. In accordance with UNOS policy, organs are allocated and offered to potential recipients on the waitlist by contacting their transplant program. When all suitable organs are allocated, the surgical recovery is completed and organs are distributed to the transplant programs. Vital organs for transplant include heart, lung, liver, kidney, pancreas, and small bowel. MTN works under contract with several tissue processors, eye banks and research organizations to recover tissues and research tissues and organs. Tissues for transplant include skin, bone, connective tissue, blood vessels, heart valves, corneas and eyes. Research organs and tissues may include those listed or others specified by the researcher. The tissue banks we contract with give priority access to tissue from our donors to hospitals located in our service area. These organizations include Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Regeneration Technologies, Inc., Cryolife, LifeNet, IIAM, and NDRI. MTN works collaboratively with the two eye banks in our services area to maximize the gift of eye and cornea donation. These eye banks are Heartland Lions Eye Banks and the Kansas Eye Bank and Research Center. Educating the public and promoting awareness about the critical need for donation and transplantation is an important goal of our organization. MTN staff work throughout the year to provide public education programs and utilize our trained volunteer group of "Ambassadors" to reach out to the community. We also collaborate and partner with government agencies, eye banks, hospitals, and other non-profit organizations to bring the message of lifesaving donation to a broader multicultural audience. Examples include the Missouri Department of Health &amp; Senior Services which operates the state's donor registry, National Kidney Foundation, American Liver Foundation, Gift of Life, Donate Life Rose Parade Float, Lyric of Life, The Links, Inc., etc. Other services provided by the organization in support of the primary mission include: - Hospital Services to include policy development, process improvement - Medical and hospital staff education/training - Consultation to increase compliance with Federal and state regulations - Donor family support services - Histocompatability laboratory testing services for organ and bone marrow transplant programs to match donors and recipients MTN strives to continually improve operations through a formal quality improvement program. The mission of the organization is fulfilled in each day's activity by continually striving to achieve excellence in service to the community. The vision for MTN is: "that the treatment of disease and suffering not be limited by the lack of transplantable organs and tissues".</Explanation>
