This blog deals with general healthcare policy and also with governmental policies which make it harder for people to get organ transplants which lead to decreased life expectancy. It also deals with implications of organ donation policies on life expectancy, quality of life, and economic issues. This blog is partially comprised of knowledge I gained while completing an MPH at NIU. This blog is dedicated to the memory of Harvey Schultz who suffered from Diabetes & ESRD.
