Override allocation exclusion filters
Intended audience: csc manager
The allocation algorithm uses filters to exclude recipients from allocation recommendations based on individual transplant program policies (See About allocation exclusion filters for details).
A CSC manager can override exclusion filters as required, on an allocation by allocation basis. CSCs must ask their manager to apply the overrides.
Overriding allocation exclusion filters
As a CSC Manager, go to the donor profile, then select Organ > Allocation / eOffer on the sidebar.
Select the Override Exclusion Filters button from the Allocation Controls.
The system presents a window showing the transplants' exclusion filters that apply for this organ.
The filters are shown as selected, meaning they will be applied on this allocation.
Deselect the filters to be turned off (deactivated) for this allocation.
Select the OK button.
Select Cancel to return to the previous step.
The system asks for confirmation that these filters are to be deactivated.
Select:
OK to continue.
Cancel to return to the previous step.
As either the CSC manager or the CSC, select the Run Allocation Recommendation (or Re-Run Allocation Recommendation) button and follow the normal steps.
The system generates an allocation recommendation that includes recipients who might normally have been excluded.
The Special Considerations in the Allocation details area on the recommendation indicates which filters have been overridden.
The recommendation includes a flag for recipients who appear on the listing because a filter was disabled.
