The Incremental Cost of Incompatible Living Donor Kidney Transplantation: A National Cohort Analysis

Incompatible living donor kidney transplantation (ILDKT) has been established as an effective option for end‐stage renal disease patients with willing but HLA‐incompatible living donors, reducing mortality and improving quality of life. Depending on antibody titer, ILDKT can require highly resource‐...

description Incompatible living donor kidney transplantation (ILDKT) has been established as an effective option for end‐stage renal disease patients with willing but HLA‐incompatible living donors, reducing mortality and improving quality of life. Depending on antibody titer, ILDKT can require highly resource‐intensive procedures, including intravenous immunoglobulin, plasma exchange, and/or cell‐depleting antibody treatment, as well as protocol biopsies and donor‐specific antibody testing. This study sought to compare the cost and Medicare reimbursement, exclusive of organ acquisition payment, for ILDKT (n = 926) with varying antibody titers to matched compatible transplants (n = 2762) performed between 2002 and 2011. Data were assembled from a national cohort study of ILDKT and a unique data set linking hospital cost accounting data and Medicare claims. ILDKT was more expensive than matched compatible transplantation, ranging from 20% higher adjusted costs for positive on Luminex assay but negative flow cytometric crossmatch, 26% higher for positive flow cytometric crossmatch but negative cytotoxic crossmatch, and 39% higher for positive cytotoxic crossmatch (p
