IntroductionCompensated organ donations: one of the most controversial issues we have today. The shortage of organ donations in America is the main reason why there is a sudden diversion from the possible source of organs. Starting from the donations of cadaveric organs to living donors, various strategies have arisen to reduce this shortage; As a result of this research, selling and selling organs for money is one of the approaches that has attracted too much attention from the public. The controversy over paid organ donations came into the spotlight when the state of Wisconsin offered incentives to living donors. This law, created in 2004, guarantees tax deduction and reimbursement of donation expenses such as travel expenses and lost earnings. Historically, neither the right of ownership over a human corpse nor the license to remove and transfer a corpse's organs is evident in universal law. Therefore, when transplants became possible, there were no legal systems that allowed individuals to donate their organs in the event of death for the purpose of transplantation. To solve this problem, the UAGA or Uniform Anatomical Gift Act was published in 1968. This act grants an individual the right to choose before death whether their organs will be donated or offered for transplants. In case the individual can no longer decide due to his condition, relatives have the right to decide for him. The UAGA openly addresses organ donation, but is silent on the issue of organ sales and compensation. The buying and selling of organs has remained unclear since the passage of the National Organ Transplant Act (NOTA) in 1984. It improves the system of voluntary organ donation and bans the commercial organ market by making it a federal crime . Experts say that the......middle of paper......ro, L. (2003).
