Board asks for organ‑level allocation dashboard; staff says development underway
Summary
A board member requested an allocation out‑of‑sequence dashboard broken down by organ to show policy impacts; Dr. Lasky said the dashboard is under active development but offered no timeline.
Board member Sam asked the OPTN staff whether the allocation out‑of‑sequence dashboard can display data by organ to show the effects of the emergency lung allocation action and to improve transparency.
"I wanted to just ask, and this might be a question for Doctor Lasky, whether we've made any progress in the allocation out of sequence dashboard to display by organ," Sam said, explaining that organ‑level visibility would help track whether policy changes reduce out‑of‑sequence allocation.
Dr. Lasky replied that the dashboard is "under active development" and acknowledged it is a frequent request from the community, but he did not provide a timeline. Dr. Lasky said staff have the data and that the challenge is getting it into the dashboard interface. The board encouraged making the data available as soon as possible to enhance transparency around policy effects.
Staff noted that causality between policy and observed changes can be difficult to establish, but making organ‑level metrics available would support monitoring and evaluation.
