Opt-out organ donation
Opt-out organ donation is a system where all eligible individuals are presumed willing to donate their organs after death unless they explicitly state otherwise. This approach simplifies the process for families and aims to increase the availability of organs for transplantation. In such systems, individuals must actively choose to register as non-donors if they do not wish to donate. It balances respecting personal choice with the goal of saving more lives through organ transplants, often leading to higher donation rates compared to opt-in systems where individuals must register their consent.
