## Summary

**Blocks federal and many private payments and coverage for organ transplants tied to the People's Republic of China.** The bill bans coverage for transplants that occur in the People’s Republic of China or that use organs not procured through the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network and creates criminal and civil penalties and HHS rulemaking to define prohibited items and penalty costs by January 1, 2026. - Patients and families: People who receive a transplant that meets the ban will not have Medicare, Medicaid, or group health plan coverage for the transplant or routine follow-up care after January 1, 2026, unless the follow-up item or service is needed to save the person’s life. - Federal programs and insurers: Medicare reimbursement is barred for prohibited transplants and related items or services. Medicaid state plans must not pay for them and may recover amounts already spent on such transplants or related care. - Providers and plans: Furnishing a prohibited transplant can trigger criminal penalties up to 2 years in prison and fines. Civil liability can be imposed equal to three times the HHS-determined cost of the transplant or related items, and the Attorney General or state attorneys general may bring suits.

- Providers face bans and penalties on transplants: cost, medium. Beginning January 1, 2026, health care providers would be barred from furnishing a prohibited organ transplant.

- What counts as a banned transplant: mixed, low. Starting January 1, 2026, a transplant would be “prohibited” if it happens in the People’s Republic of China or uses an organ not obtained through the U.S. Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network.
