"Outright sale of transplantable organs remains illegal in the U.S. And any payment to the families of deceased donors, while still hotly debated, is illegal. But with the need for organs racing even farther ahead of the supply, surgeons, ethicists and lawmakers are not only debating the rules of donation, but they are also beginning to rewrite them." (LOS ANGELES TIMES) This article examines the "ethical complexities of using money to secure an organ."
