Leidos teams with CareDx to transform the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network

Leidos announced its collaboration with CareDx – The Transplant Company™ to help drive one of the most significant modernizations of the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (OPTN) in nearly four decades. This reform seeks to make the organ transplantation process more transparent, inclusive and effective for patients across the nation.

As part of this multi-layered initiative, Leidos and CareDx, a leader in innovative transplant solutions, will combine their expertise to design and implement innovations to help enhance every stage of the pre- and post-transplant journey. The companies will focus on advancing technologies, generating actionable insights, and streamlining operations with the goal of improving performance, governance and efficiency in organ transplantation.

“We are proud to team with CareDx, whose expertise in the organ transplant ecosystem complements Leidos’ strengths in technology, health systems and large-scale electronic health record implementations,” said Liz Porter, Leidos Health & Civil Sector president. “Together, we are uniquely positioned to create transformative solutions that are designed to improve the lives of patients and their families, while supporting the critical reforms needed to modernize the OPTN.”

This joint effort represents a significant step toward building a more resilient and effective organ transplant system that benefits patients, families and healthcare providers alike.
