An announcement will be sent to the region in September and the information will be posted on Transplant Pro. All nominations must be accompanied by a candidate bio form to be considered. The bio form is online. The nominating committee is responsible for reviewing all nominations received from the region. The committee selection process is based on an individual’s professional experience, participation and engagement at a regional level, the needs of each committee for subject specific expertise, the ability of the candidate to represent the region at a national level, and the desire to have representation from as many areas of the region as possible. The Region 2 nominating committee consists of the Councillor, the Associate Councillor, the immediate past councillor and an OPO representative. Regional recommendations are considered and appointed by the OPTN/UNOS President-Elect. Committee appointments will be made in April for terms beginning July 1, 2017.

Note about MPSC: The Associate Councillor serves as the MPSC Representative. Per OPTN bylaws this is an elected position. The nominating committee has historically only considered candidates for this position if they have previous committee experience since this individual will serve as the Councillor and regional representative on the Board following their term on the MPSC. It is important that the candidates understand OPTN/UNOS processes.

8 Regional Meeting Agenda: Discussion
Discussion agenda format is the same as previous meetings 10 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.

9 Regional Meeting Agenda: Non-Discussion
Includes proposals anticipated to be: non-controversial, minimal impact on the transplant community, and/or represent a clerical change to clarify policy or remain current with clinical practice Region was offered an opportunity to request that a proposal(s) be placed on the discussion agenda None received Proposals will be voted on today, but not presented or discussed Proposals presented and discussed during national webinars The proposals on the ND agenda are anticipated to be non-controversial, have minimal impact on the donation and transplantation community, and/or represent a clerical change to clarify the intent of policy or to remain current with clinical practice. The ND agenda is developed with the aim of giving the regions more time to thoroughly discuss proposals that are controversial and have a larger impact on the community as a whole. The Regional Councillors and Administrators identified 2 proposals and 3 white papers that are anticipated to have a lower impact on the transplant community as a whole. In previous correspondence, you were provided an opportunity to request that a proposal on the non-discussion agenda be added to the discussion agenda. The proposals on the non-discussion agenda will be voted on today, but they will not be presented or discussed.

10 National Webinars Two webinars to present and discuss the proposals and white papers on non-discussion agenda August 23 and September 20: 2-3:30 p.m. Registration information located on Transplant Pro One webinar was held earlier this week and a second webinar (identical in content) will be held on Sept 20 to present summaries of the proposals and white papers. Members are given an opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback on the webinars. Registration information is located in the “region” section of the Transplant Pro website.

11 Non-Discussion Proposals: Vote You have the option to abstain from voting if you haven’t reviewed the proposals Consider Primary Transplant Surgeon Requirement – Primary or First Assistant on Transplant Cases (Membership and Professional Standards Committee) Updating Primary Kidney Transplant Physician Requirements (Membership and Professional Standards Committee) Split Versus Whole Liver Transplantation (Ethics Committee) The Ethics of Deceased Organ Recovery without Requirements for Explicit Consent or Authorization (Ethics Committee) Ethical considerations of Imminent Death Donation (Ethics Committee) This slide includes a list of the proposals that we need to vote on today. **Read the title of each proposal** The plan is to take one vote on all 5 items unless anyone is opposed to a specific proposal. If you haven’t reviewed one of the proposals on this list and will abstain from voting or will vote to oppose a proposal, please raise your hand and we will vote on each proposal separately. Note to councillors: **Please remind the group that they have the option to abstain if they didn’t attend one of the national webinars to hear the proposal presented or haven’t read the proposal online. If no hands are raised, take one vote on all 5 items: yes, no, abstentions If hands are raised: vote on each proposal separately – yes, no, abstentions

12 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 on today are located at each table. Everyone may participate in the discussion 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.

13 Public Comment Opportunities
Contact Regional Representatives Submit public comment online OPTN website: blog-style format, individual, regional, and committee comments are published 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. You can also submit an individual public comment online through the OPTN website. The public comment site provides a blog-type feature for public comment. To encourage public participation and transparency, the public comment site publishes submitted comments.
