THE ORGAN DONOR SYSTEM is based on a level playing field. Someone who needs an organ is placed on a national waiting list, with a number. Where you are on the list (number) is defined by how sick you are and how badly you need the organ, in order to live. That way, everyone has an equal chance, regardless of how rich or poor you are, or whether you have "connections" to people in the political or medical field. If the system were not like this, then wealthy people would always be at the top of the list, and poor people would always be at the bottom. It doesn't matter what sex, race, or nationality you are. THIS IS THE WAY IT IS SUPPOSE TO WORK, and MOST ALWAYS, this is followed. I'm sure that someone, somewhere, tries to corrupt the system with political connections or MONEY, but in general, those tactics fail, and eveyone is treated EQUALLY.

What is the heart is it a system or organ or tissue?
The heart is an organ.
Can a heart be donated more than once. Say if the person that got the transplant died could the heart go on to another person?
I think transplanted organs are not generally re-transplanted into another patient (if the first dies). Simply since the organ has already been put under a lot of pressure being moved from the donor to the first recipient - there's a higher risk of failure if it were transplanted again. And there's the possibility that the organ could be getting quite old by that time. Depending on how long the first recipient lived, the organ could also have been subjected to a lot of immunosuppressive drugs, which can compromise it's ability to work over a long period.
