The Policy Oversight Committee reviews developing and proposed policies and Committee initiatives for the purpose of providing input both to the Committees and the Board with regard to some specific perspectives. Those perspectives include the degree to which specific proposals address policy goals outlined in either the National Organ Transplant Act or the OPTN Final Rule and whether initiatives/policies are sufficiently evidence-based, where appropriate. The POC may review developing OPTN policies and initiatives through these and/or other perspectives as the leadership directs. The goal of the committee's work is to ensure that OPTN initiatives, regardless of sponsoring committee, are reviewed and evaluated with a standard set of perspectives and are considered as part of a larger national transplantation system.
