How to read this page

You're here because you want to know if another transplant center might list you, transplant you faster, or give you a second opinion. Here's how to read the numbers below.

Median wait tells you how long listed patients typically wait for a transplant at that center. Waitlist mortality counts deaths and removals during the wait — some patients get delisted because they become too sick to transplant safely, which is a real clinical decision but one that can make a center's mortality number look better than it is. That's why we recommend reading waitlist mortality alongside transplant rate and waitlist deteriorations (both on this page) rather than in isolation. 1-year survival reflects post-transplant outcomes.

No single number tells the whole story. Use these to build better questions for your team. And if you've been told you're "not sick enough," you have the right to ask another center for an evaluation.

What the columns in the compare tables mean

  • Center / City / State / Region: program name, location, and OPTN region (1–11).
  • For your profile: regional cohort-match badge. Fills after you submit the Personalize form below.
  • Wait (months): SRTR-reported median time to transplant for the program in the current release.
  • WL Mort/100PY: waitlist mortality rate — deaths per 100 person-years (SRTR definition).
  • 1y / 3y Survival: post-transplant survival percentage at 1 year and 3 years.
  • Avg listing MELD/PELD (TX cohort): weighted-average listing score of patients transplanted within 1 year of listing, derived from SRTR Tables B8–B9. Not the score at the moment of transplant; disease progression between listing and transplant raises real-at-TX scores above this number.
  • TX Rate/100PY: deceased-donor transplant rate per 100 person-years of waiting.
  • WL Deaths / WL Deteriorated / Still Waiting: raw counts from SRTR for the report period.

If SRTR does not publish a value for a field in a given release, the cell displays "—". Click any column header to sort. Click any row to open the per-center detail card.
