It’s based on likelihood to succeed and remaining useful life. I’ve had a patient in their 70s receive a kidney transplant. Ability to attend medical appointments and adhere to prescription drug regimens play a large role in approval for transplant. And I’ve personally witnessed major transplant teams go out of their way to help patients overcome obstacles like transport to medical appointments, affording meds, in an effort to get them ready for transplant approval.
Honestly, I wish all medical care could be as hands on and holistic as transplant is.
Depends if it’s basing it on likelihood to succeed than yes other factors no
