The allocation recommendation can be re-run multiple times for a consented organ, to obtain new ranked lists of eligible recipients.

This may be required in cases where:

  • A newly identified HSH or high status liver patient gets listed in the Canadian Transplant Registry (CTR).

  • Significant information about the donor or organ is changed on OATS. The allocation recommendation may be re-run to ensure the new information is properly factored into the recommendation.


Re-running an allocation recommendation

Pre-requisite: An allocation has already been run for the consented organ.

Any active offers for that organ must be discontinued. (Do not discontinue allocations and offers for all of the donor’s organs, just the organ that is to be re-allocated.)

To re-run an allocation recommendation:

  1. Go to the donor profile, then select Organ > Allocation / eOffer on the left side of the page.


  2. Discontinue the eOffer process.

  3. The available allocation controls change to allow you to re-run the allocation


  4. Select the Re-Run Allocation Recommendation button.

  5. The system asks for confirmation that the allocation is to be re-run.


  6. Select:

    • OK to continue.

    • Cancel to return to the previous step

The system compiles, filters, and ranks all eligible organ recipients.
The system expands the Allocation/eOffer section to show the new allocation recommendation.
