Cost management of Organ Procurement Organization from the perspective of value chain

Human organ donation has entered a high-quality development stage in China, which proposes new requirements for the operation and management of Organ Procurement Organization (OPO). Strengthening cost management of OPO contributes to maintaining healthy and sustainable development of organ donation and highlighting the public welfare and social responsibility of OPO. Therefore, in this article, cost management was taken as the breakthrough point and the concept of value chain cost management was introduced to comprehensively analyze the internal and external value activities of OPO from the aspects of excessively high cost hindering the development of organ donation, value chain cost management promoting high-quality development of organ donation and OPO cost management optimization strategies based on value chain theory, aiming to provide reference for lowering internal cost, expanding the range of cost management and improving industry supervision, thereby reasonably controlling the cost of different activities on the organ donation value chain, achieving the goal of restraining excessive increase of organ procurement cost and promoting healthy development of organ donation and transplantation in China.
