Background
Organ transplant recipients 16+ have to pay for immunosuppressant medication. Like other conditions, it requires life-long medication. Without immunosuppressant medication, the transplanted organ can be rejected, and may require further transplants - if they are available. Otherwise, it could be fatal.
