FAQs

Qualifications include chronic irreversible kidney disease and being on dialysis or close to needing it. Ineligibility factors may include other life-threatening diseases, a history of substance abuse, or serious psychiatric disorders.
Transplant Coach identifies transplant centers with shorter wait and helps patients apply to be considered for a transplant.
Yes, UNOS (the United Network for Organ Sharing) manages a national waiting list, but organ allocation is mainly handled regionally by 58 organ procurement organizations (OPOs) before broader allocation consideration.
Yes, non-U.S. residents can receive organ transplants in the United States. However, there are several factors and considerations to discuss after applying including; Insurance coverage, cost, visa requirements, and post-transplant care.
Blood type can impact waiting time; our map and grid on the Transplant Coach homepage show estimated wait times based on specific blood types so you'll know the average wait time before applying. Another factor, a Panel Reactive Antibody (PRA) affects your waiting time. PRA measures donor compatibility, with high PRA patients potentially waiting longer due to a higher likelihood of incompatible matches, ranging from 0% to 99%. For example, if your PRA is 80%, you are estimated to accept 20 of 100 donor offers. Listing at a high volume transplant center is advisable.
Good quality deceased donor kidneys (KDPI < 20%) are comparable to living donor kidneys, while medium and lower quality deceased donor kidneys do not last quite as long, according to OPTN data.

About Our Founders

Portrait of Irena Bucci

Irena Bucci

Founder of TxMultilisting.com (now Transplant Coach Inc.), featured in AJT, Forbes, and Upland InterFAX.

As a transplant candidate undergoing transplant evaluations at nine different centers in 2012, I firsthand experienced a significant variation of care, waiting times for transplant and unnecessary delays during the evaluation process. I always believed there should be a better way to navigate the process. Transplant Coach has already significantly reduced wait times for many and expedited pre-transplant evaluation for transplant candidates. I am confident our services will grow to transform transplant journeys and the listing process across the country.

Jacob Bluestein

Co-founder of Transplant Coach Inc., experienced in scaling Real Estate and Finance products and services.

In 2016, I faced the challenging reality of a 5+ wait for a kidney transplant in New York City. Determined to explore alternative options, I listed at a center in another state with significantly shorter wait time, reducing my waiting time from 5+ years to less than 1 year - a decision that saved my life. This journey ignited a deep-seated commitment to transforming how transplant candidates look at their treatment options. My goal is for future candidates to experience shorter wait times and more efficient care through Transplant Coach.

Transplant Success Stories

Carlos
Coral Gables, Florida
Irena
Transplant coordinator, Baylor, Texas

I have had quite a few patients who benefited from this website and already had transplants at centers with shorter wait time than us. This is an amazing site and we are very, very grateful. I have had doctors reaching out to me and expressing gratitude for giving them this info so they can direct their patients to wherever they can get transplant sooner.

Everything worked out swimmingly.
I used the multi listing website in October 2022, filled out my application via Transplant Coach, was evaluated in Feb 2023 and received a transplant in Charleston, West Virginia in May 2023.

Albert
Baton Rouge, Louisiana

In July 2021, I received a kidney transplant at the University of Toledo Medical Center after being on their list less than a year. Recovery is going well so far. I wanted to thank you so much for developing the website if it wasn't for that I would probably still be on dialysis and waiting for a transplant.

Loretta
Monterey, California

Recently, I was at an appointment and happen to sit next to a person who used to be in the same health situation as I am. In need of a Kidney. He informed me that he reached out to you and you sent him a kidney waiting list in another state and it cut his waiting time down tremendously. He has a new kidney and doing well.

Mike

I was on the list in Chicago. I self dialyzed for a year, sticking dialysis needles into my left arm with my right hand. I've done a lot of research and found your website. I have relocated to Iowa, got the call and was transplanted. I've just celebrated 4 year transplant anniversary and my creatinine is 1.0. You might've saved my life.
