Reducing Healthcare Costs
As LINC plans to share intellectual
property, including (among others) best
practices, problem resolution, proposal
development, it can focus less on
administrative costs and more on lowering
the cost of healthcare for patients, donors
and families, hospitals, partners and the
communities served.
Improving Access
Access to healthcare services is important
for the general population and even more
so for patients in need of transplants.
LINC improves access to healthcare
providers that patients can trust through
increasing visibility of the individual
OPO members.
