Hospitals work with their donation organizations and hospital associations. DoT offers support by hosting coaching and best practices webinars, providing turnkey communications pieces and a list of recommended activities, and by recognizing partners for their participation. Since 2011, the campaign has added nearly 400,000 donor enrollments to state registries.
