Although medical conditions requiring a transplant are rare, these situations have a dramatic impact on both the patients and insurer. The average cost for a "typical" transplant and related care is over $250,000; certain transplant situations can drive health plan costs more than $1 million. In addition to the actual claims costs, managing these cases can be extremely time consuming, confusing and difficult for both the patients and health plan.
