Response to Request

Your FOI request is approved. 

The DOH Philippine Network for Organ Sharing  (PHILNOS) doesn't collect data on the number of wasted organs which is beyond the program's purview. DOH Administrative Order No. 2010-0019 contains the process of organ donation and transplantation. (see attached file) Similarly, the Health Facilities and Services Regulatory Bureau (HFSRB) website at http://hfsrb.doh.gov.ph has a list of transplant facilities that provide transplant programs. Attached is a copy of the available data for disposition
