As for the tenth part of this new article series titled as All You Need to Know About Organ Transplants and EKG Machines, we will be discussing on about looking at your lifestyle before an organ transplant and handling of its finances.
Looking at Your Lifestyle Before an Organ Transplant
Often, organ transplant candidates need to make some substantial lifestyle changes, such as losing a moderate or large amount of weight or stopping smoking, says Spicer.
That can be hard for some, Spicer says. Candidates are often willing participants in the high-tech aspects of an organ transplant but may drag their feet on lifestyle changes or deny that changes are even necessary.
That's when you need to cultivate a little perspective, recommends Spicer, and decide on just what the transplant is worth to you.
Handling the Financing of an Organ Transplant
Whatever the organ, transplants are expensive. For instance, the first-year estimated costs for a heart transplant in 2005 was about $479,000, according to the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS), a nonprofit national organization that administers the country's Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network. In the same year, one-year costs for a kidney transplant were $210,000, while a combined liver-pancreas-intestine transplant cost $885,600.
