Interpretive Guidelines §486.324(a)(1)
There are four (4) individual kinds of members specifically listed within this Standard:
(a) hospital administrator;
(b) either intensive care or emergency room personnel;
(c) tissue banks; if the OPO is the only tissue bank in its service area it may represent
the tissue bank; and
(d) voluntary health associations in the OPO’s service area.
Voluntary health associations are those organizations primarily engaged in raising funds
for health related research such as disease prevention and treatment and providing health
education and patient services.
The tissue bank representative may be from any tissue bank in the service area. This
representative may be from a tissue recovery agency or tissue processor.
