HR 628 United States House · 119th Congress

Honor Our Living Donors Act

HR 628, the Honor Our Living Donors Act, amends federal law to protect living organ donors by changing how reimbursement grants operate. It prohibits grant recipients from considering the organ recipient's income when reimbursing donors and removes any expectation that organ recipients pay donors directly. The bill also requires the Secretary to submit an annual report detailing whether grants fully covered all donor expenses and estimating any funding gaps. This directly affects living organ donors participating in federal grant programs under the Public Health Service Act.
