Last fall you were asked to nominate members to serve as regional representatives to OPTN/UNOS Committees. The regional nominating committee reviewed the nominations received and made recommendations based on an individual’s professional experience, willingness to serve, the needs of the committee for subject specific expertise, the candidate’s ability to represent the region nationally and the desire to have representation from all areas of the region. Dr. Carl Berg, the incoming OPTN/UNOS President, has reviewed the regional representative recommendations and finalized committee appointments. Appointment letters are being sent this week. Next, I would like to congratulate Dr. Lew Teperman, who was elected to serve as the Region 9 Associate Councillor/Councillor elect beginning July 1, 2014. Dr. Teperman will represent the region on the OPTN/UNOS Membership and Professional Standards Committee for two years and will move into the Councillor position in July 2016. We will also have a new Councillor beginning in July as my term ends in June. Dr. Lloyd Ratner will take over as Councillor for a 2 year term.

Update on OPTN/UNOS Activities Presentation from OPTN/UNOS leadership Committee reports presented by regional representatives Regional feedback is provided to each committee OPTN/UNOS leadership makes it a priority to attend each regional meeting and provide updates on OPTN and UNOS activities. Today, Dr. Carl Berg, Vice-President of OPTN/UNOS is here to provide this update. Today, the regional representatives will present updates on OPTN committee activities. Any feedback received will be provided to the sponsoring committee by the regional representatives for consideration.

Regional Meeting Agenda Regional Councillors and Administrators reviewed spring meeting agenda 17 public comment proposals 11 committee updates, some requiring regional discussion Problem: large amount of material to cover during one meeting Solution: Divide agenda into two sections, discussion and non-discussion The Regional Councillors and Administrators met to review the agenda for the spring regional meetings. The committees have 17 public comment proposals and 11 committee updates for the regions to review and discuss. In order to cover the material, the regional meeting time would need to be extended by at least an hour and a half. A decision was made to extend the regional meeting by 30 minutes, and reduce the amount of material to be discussed by dividing the agenda into two sections, discussion and non-discussion.

Discussion Agenda Discussion agenda format is the same as previous meetings 12 public comment proposals Presentation Discussion Regional Vote The discussion agenda follows the same format as previous regional meetings. The regional representatives will present proposals today and the region will have an opportunity to discuss them. Following discussion, a vote will be taken on each proposal.

Non-Discussion Agenda Includes proposals anticipated to have a lower impact on the community Region was offered an opportunity to request that a proposal(s) be placed on the discussion agenda Proposals will be voted on today, but not presented or discussed Proposals were presented and discussed during national webinars The Regional Councillors and Administrators identified 5 proposals that are anticipated to have a lower impact on the transplant community as a whole. In previous email correspondence, you were provided an opportunity to request that a proposal or proposals on the non-discussion agenda be added to the discussion agenda. No requests were received. The 5 proposals on the non-discussion agenda will be voted on today, but they will not be presented or discussed. The proposals on the non-discussion agenda were presented and discussed during national webinars.

National Webinar Two webinars were held to present and discuss 5 proposals on non-discussion agenda Information on Transplant Pro website: http://transplantpro.org/spring-2014-national- webinar/ Summaries of the 5 proposals were presented by the sponsoring committee and members were given an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. Regional Administration offered webinars in March and April. Webinar information is located on the Transplant Pro website at the link on this slide. If you have questions or need assistance accessing this information, please contact Shannon.

Public Comment Proposals Public comment booklets on each table All attendees may discuss and provide feedback Each OPTN/UNOS member institution has one voting representative Sponsoring committee considers regional feedback in development of final proposal Board receives all public comment Your feedback is important! Public comment booklets containing the proposals we will discuss and vote upon today are located at each table. All of you may participate in the discussion today and provide feedback. After each proposal is presented and discussed, a vote will be taken. Each OPTN/UNOS member institution receives one vote. OPTN/UNOS members include OPOs, transplant centers, histocompatibility laboratories, general public members, and professional organizations. A yellow card is provided to each voting member at the registration desk. Regional feedback is important as it is considered by the sponsoring committee when developing final proposals, and public comment proposals are often modified and improved based upon regional feedback. The Board also receives all public comment responses so that the directors have a sense of the transplant community’s sentiment about a given proposal.

Public Comment Opportunities Contact Regional Representatives http://transplantpro.org/region-9-spring-2014-meeting/ Submit public comment online OPTN website: http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/policiesAndBylaws/ publicComment/ If you have individual feedback on any of the public comment proposals, you have a couple ways to provide feedback. You can contact our region’s representative on the sponsoring committee. A list of our region’s representatives is located in the booklet at your seat and also on the Transplant Pro website. As always, you can also submit an individual public comment online through the OPTN website. As a reminder, this tool is always available to members to provide individual and center specific feedback to the committee on all the proposals that are submitted for public comment.
