UNOS, which serves as the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) under federal contract, continues to provide all services without interruption despite the shutdown of some federal government functions that began December 22, 2018. All UNetSM applications and the donor matching system remain operational, and all UNOS staff will continue to maintain their regular schedules.
Should there be any need for an update in the longer term, we will inform you at that time.
