"We continue to do everything in our power to increase access to life-saving organs while addressing health inequities faced by people with HIV," said HSS secretary Xavier Becerra.
"This rule removes unnecessary barriers to kidney and liver transplants, expanding the organ donor pool and improving outcomes for transplant recipients with HIV. This evidence-based policy update demonstrates our commitment to ensuring all Americans have access to the care they need."
"Research shows that kidney and liver transplants between donors and recipients with HIV can be performed safely and effectively. This change reflects our commitment to following the evidence and updating our approaches as we learn more."
"This is a significant step forward in expanding access and reducing wait times for life-saving organ transplants for people with HIV." - Carole Johnson, administrator of the Health Resources and Services Administration.
