Wait List Activity and Transplant Outcomes: View data for your hospital
To see specific reports with statistics about organ donation and recovery, waitlist activity such as transplant rate, and post-transplant outcomes such as graft and patient survival, go to the link below and select your state. These reports are published every six months with revised data about each Organ Procurement Organization and Transplant Program operating in the United States.
Scientific Registry of Transplant Recipients

Thanks for the information.
-
FYI: I tried this link and it directed me to here: http://www.srtr.org/ for the info. It says they're no longer the contractor for that information any longer.

Yes thanks, I will change it. :2thumbsup;

The old site calculated projected waiting times for each hospital, up to 12 years for UCLA. The current data only shows the waiting times of percentiles of patients up to 72 months (anything longer is ">72 months"), which is kind of useless for the transplant centers I'm listed at. Any idea where I can find up-to-date estimates of average longer waiting times?

Not sure you can get any numbers beyond five years on the OPTN site - but you can try - go to http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/ then click on DATA, then select "View Data Reports" from the pull down menu.
Choose "Center Data" -
Step 1 : click on your state
Step 2 : Choose Center :
Choose Category : Candidates - A patient who is waiting at more than one center, or for multiple organs, would be counted as only one candidate.
Step 3 : Choose a Report below that is closest to your data needs: Organ by Waiting Time
I hope that helps??
