Our objective was to assess how financial barriers interact with motivators, other barriers, and facilitators during this process.
Methods: Data were obtained from a public survey assessing motivators, barriers, and facilitators of living donation.
Background: Minority race, ethnicity, and financial barriers are associated with lower rates of living donor (LD) kidney transplantation (LDKT). Financial reimbursement for LD costs may impact social determinants of health and, therefore, impact disparities in access to LDKT.
Methods: Among US LDKTs, we studied associations between racial and ethnic minority status and utilization of the National Living Donor Assistance Center (NLDAC), a means-tested reimbursement program for nonmedical LD costs.
