Conditions

OTHER

Standard of Care

All patients participating in the study will continue to receive usual care. Kidney transplant (KT) candidates are advised that live donor kidney transplantation (LDKT) is their best treatment option and are encouraged to initiate living donor (LD) discussions with family members and friends.

BEHAVIORAL

Wage Reimbursement A

Enrolled KT candidates will be informed that, in addition to the National Living Donor Assistance Center (NLDAC) program, their LD may be eligible to receive reimbursement for wages lost during the donation recovery period - up to a certain amount, based on randomization. They will be given information describing the LW program, eligibility criteria, and application process to share with potential LDs. At the time of study enrollment, KT candidates will consent to the LD nurse coordinator informing all of their potential LDs about the study and the potential for reimbursement of LD lost wages. Reimbursement will occur for those LDs who file an application, provide the required documentation, and meet eligibility criteria.

BEHAVIORAL

Wage Reimbursement B

Enrolled KT candidates will be informed that, in addition to the National Living Donor Assistance Center (NLDAC) program, their LD may be eligible to receive reimbursement for wages lost during the donation recovery period - up to a certain amount (different from LW-A), based on randomization. They will be given information describing the LW program, eligibility criteria, and application process to share with potential LDs. At the time of study enrollment, KT candidates will consent to the LD nurse coordinator informing all of their potential LDs about the study and the potential for reimbursement of LD lost wages. Reimbursement will occur for those LDs who file an application, provide the required documentation, and meet eligibility criteria.
