What are OPOs?
. OPOs are organizations that coordinate activities related to organ and tissue donation for transplant in a designated service area. OPOs are responsible for evaluating potential donors, discussing donation with family members, and arranging for the procurement procedure. Facilitating the placement of organs for transplant, providing preservation services, and arranging organ transportation are also responsibilities of the OPO.
