How does someone get on the waiting list?

The patient can register for inclusion in the waiting list through a registered transplant hospital. The treating physician of the hospital shall make an evaluation (based on medical history, the current condition of health, and other factors) and decide if the patient needs a transplant and meets the criteria to be listed. Like for kidney transplant, other than blood group, the main criteria is time since the patient is on regular dialysis. Similarly, for other organs, criteria are different based on medical history, the current condition of health, and other factors.
