MTS IS FEDERALLY DESIGNATED BY THE CENTERS FOR MEDICARE AND MEDICAID SERVICES UNDER THE US DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AS THE NOT FOR-PROFIT ORGAN PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATION WITHIN ITS SERVICE AREA. WE ARE ACCREDITED BY THE ASSOCIATION OF ORGAN PROCUREMENT ORGANIZATIONS, THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF TISSUE BANKS AND THE EYE BANK ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA.

WITH A SERVICE AREA OF OVER 4.2 MILLION PEOPLE, THROUGH MTS' NUMEROUS ACTIVITIES DURING THE YEAR FOR BOTH THE PROFESSIONAL COMMUNITY AND THE GENERAL PUBLIC, MTS REACHES COUNTLESS INDIVIDUALS TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE AND EDUCATE REGARDING ORGAN AND TISSUE DONATION. DONOR FAMILY SUPPORT SERVICES - STAFF WORK WITH FAMILIES WHO MAKE THE DIFFICULT AND SELFLESS DECISIONS TO DONATE LIFE SO THAT OTHERS MAY LIVE.

FOLLOWING THE DONATION, STAFF MEMBERS PROVIDE ONGOING INFORMATION TO THOUSANDS OF FAMILIES ABOUT THEIR DONATIONS AND RECIPIENTS, AND OFFER SUPPORT THROUGH REMEMBRANCE CEREMONIES AND COMMUNITY EVENTS.
