The donor's family (or their insurance company) is only responsible
for paying for medical care up to the point of death. Once death
occurs, any expenses related to organ or tissue donation are
covered and there will be no charges to the donor's estate or the
donor's family.
Occasionally, the hospital's billing system may make an unfortunate
mistake and the donor's family may be accidentally billed for
services related to the donation. If this occurs, the donor's family
should contact the hospital and/or the organ procurement
organization to rectify the mistake.
