AN ACT relating to organ donation safety.

Summary

The law obligates hospitals and organ‑procurement teams to stop any donation activity when there is an indication of life, a change in neurological status, or doubt about the death determination, and to record and report the pause. It protects patients, families, and clinicians by ensuring clear, enforceable safeguards during donation after circulatory or brain death. The measure seeks to bolster public trust and safety in Kentucky’s organ‑transplant system.
