8.4.C Sorting Within Each Classification For candidates within classifications 1 through 7 according to Tables 8-7 and 8-8; classifications 1 through 6 according to Table 8-9, and classifications 1 through 5 according to Table 8-10, candidates are sorted in the following order: 1. Medical urgency status 2. Total time at medically urgent status for current medically urgent candidates only (highest to lowest) 3. Total points (highest to lowest) 4. Date and time of the candidate’s registration (oldest to most recent) For candidates within all other classifications, candidates are sorted in the following order: 1. Total points (highest to lowest) 2. Date and time of the candidate’s registration (oldest to most recent) 8.4.D Allocation of Kidneys by Blood Type Transplants are restricted by blood type in certain circumstances. Kidneys will be allocated to candidates according to the blood type matching requirements in Table 8-6 below: Table 8-6: Allocation of Kidneys by Blood Type Kidneys from Donors with: Are Allocated to Candidates with: Blood Type O Blood type O. For offers made to candidates in 0-ABDR mismatch categories, blood type O kidneys may be transplanted into candidates who have blood types other than O. Blood Type A Blood type A or blood type AB. Blood Type B Blood type B. For offers made to candidates in 0-ABDR mismatch categories, blood type B kidneys may be transplanted into candidates who have blood types other than B. Blood Type AB Blood type AB. Blood Types A, non-A1 and AB, non-A1B Kidneys may be transplanted into candidates with blood type B who meet all of the following criteria: 1. The transplant program obtains written informed consent from each blood type B candidate regarding their willingness to accept a blood Effective Date: 11/13/2025 Page 158 Kidneys from Donors with: Are Allocated to Candidates with: type A, non-A1 or blood type AB, non- A1B blood type kidney. 2. The transplant program establishes a written policy regarding its program’s titer threshold for transplanting blood type A, non-A1 and blood type AB, non-A1B kidneys into candidates with blood type B. The transplant program must confirm the candidate’s eligibility every 90 days (+/- 20 days). 8.4.E Prior Living Organ Donors A kidney candidate will be classified as a prior living donor if all of the following conditions are met: 1. The candidate donated for transplantation, within the United States or its territories, at least one of the following: • Kidney • Liver segment • Lung segment • Partial pancreas • Small bowel segment. 2. The candidate’s physician reports all of the following information to the OPTN: a. The name of the recipient or intended recipient of the donated organ or organ segment b. The recipient’s or intended recipient’s transplant hospital c. The date the donated organ was procured

Kidneys from Deceased Donors with KDPI Scores Greater Than 20% but Less Than 35% Kidneys from deceased donors with KDPI scores greater than 20% but less than 35% are allocated to candidates according to Table 8-8 below. For the purposes of Table 8-8, distribution will be based on the distance from the candidate’s transplant hospital to the donor hospital, unless the kidney is allocated according to OPTN Policy 8.7: Allocation of Released Kidneys. For kidneys that are released and the host OPO or the OPTN executes a released kidney match run, distribution will be based on the distance from the candidate’s transplant hospital to the transplant hospital that released the organ.
