Continuity of Care, Not a Single Procedure

A transplant isn't a single event — it's a journey from diagnosis and donor evaluation, through surgery, to years of follow-up care and immunosuppression management. Health1's program is built around that continuity: the same team that manages your pre-transplant workup and surgery also manages your long-term follow-up, working alongside our dialysis partnership (NephroPlus) for patients on the pathway to transplant.

Signs That Warrant a Transplant Evaluation

Declining kidney function (rising creatinine)
Starting or approaching dialysis
Cirrhosis with worsening liver function
Persistent fatigue, swelling, or fluid retention
Jaundice

Evaluation Timeline: What to Expect

Donor and recipient evaluation typically takes several weeks — blood work, tissue typing, imaging, and specialist clearances (cardiac, psychological) all need to be completed before a surgery date is set. This isn't a delay for its own sake: thorough evaluation is what makes the surgery itself safe and gives the transplanted organ the best chance of long-term success.

Common Questions

What's the difference between living and deceased donor transplant?

A living donor (often a family member) donates a kidney or part of a liver while alive; a deceased donor transplant relies on organ availability through the national allocation system. Living donor transplants can often be planned and scheduled; deceased donor transplants depend on organ availability.

Is transplant covered under PMJAY?

PM-JAY provides coverage for eligible patients for transplant-related procedures — our team can confirm your specific eligibility and coverage during your evaluation.

What does post-transplant follow-up involve?

Regular monitoring of organ function, immunosuppression medication management, and infection prevention — typically frequent visits in the first months, tapering to periodic check-ups long-term.
