ORGAN DONOR QUEUING SYSTEM
At the back of Philippine driver’s licenses, you will find information whether or not the owner of the driver’s license is an organ donor or not. Kudos to the LTO for making that possible, but there appears to be no existing queuing system that will enable prospective donees to be informed if and when organs are available to be transplanted.
Maybe it’s just me who does not know whether there is a queuing system or not, but if there really was, I would know about it because I am always watching the horizon for it to emerge. To put it simply, a queuing system is merely a database, therefore if there was really such a database, the ICT industry would be abuzz about it.
I was told that every day, there are many people who die from road accidents and in all likelihood, most of them are holders of driver’s licenses such that emergency workers at the scene would know whether they are organ donors or not. If only there was a system, their remains could be brought to the nearest hospital where their organs could be harvested before they become useless.
In many countries, there are systems wherein prospective donees are immediately notified if viable organs are available. The notification is done via internet, mobile or even pagers in some cases. I know how to build such a system and I am willing to help whatever government agency wants to sponsor and host it. IKE SENERES/09088877282/01-02-2024
