Recently, there has been renewed interest in planning for dialysis and transplantation facilities. Such planning depends on many factors. An appropriate caseload estimate is needed. Recent advances in the state of the art must be considered. Critical issues included adequate methods for financing care, training of sufficient personnel, and the role of the university medical center as a provider of service. Regionalization of facilities is probably desirable, especially for cadaver organ procurement, tissue typing, and production of antilymphocyte globulin. An increasing emphasis is being placed on transplantation and on chronic dialysis outside the hospital. Above all, productive planning is totally dependent on the full cooperation of all the institutions, in a given area, that are providing these types of complex treatment
