Quick Glance: Biased Testing Impact on Black Kidney Transplants
- After waiting for a kidney for four years, Jazmin Evans received a shocking message from her hospital: She should have been placed on the transplant list in 2015 instead of 2019, all due to a racially biased organ test.
- An unprecedented initiative has attributed lost waiting time to over 14,000 Black kidney transplant candidates, elevating their priority on the transplant list.
- The transition to race-free equations in calculating kidney function and the directive to use only race-neutral test results are crucial steps in addressing this imbalance.
- While the reduction of race usage in medical decisions is gradual, the kidney saga serves as a distinctive example of rectifying past injustices and combating healthcare disparities.
