Health body to ensure fairness in organ system

Computerized distribution will be made compulsory nationwide

The top health authority has vowed to ensure compulsory use of a computerized system for the distribution of donated organs, thus ensuring fair allocation of organs to those in need.

A national computerized system, the China Organ Transplant Response System, was launched in 2010, but many hospitals have been slow to make use of it, relying instead on less systematic methods.
