SPERM DONOR WAITING LIST POLICY

• 
  The Andrology Lab will start and maintain a waiting list when current availability for a donor is exhausted and future availability is possible. Future availability may occur either when a new batch is released or when prepurchased samples are sold back to the Lab.
  
• 
  The fee per waiting list per donor is $100, non-refundable and non-aplicable to any future purchase. Once on the list, no additional fee is required as long as the recipient chooses to continue to be placed on subsequent lists.
• 
  Only one waiting list per donor will be created. If several future releases are expected, the list applies only to the next release. A new list will be created as soon as availability is exhausted following contact with people on the current list.
• 
  Recipients will be placed on the waiting list in the order the request is received. However, recipients requesting samples for a sibling will receive priority and will be placed higher on the list. If this happens, a new recipient will be moved to a place lower on the list than would otherwise be the case. Other unforeseen circumstances may also necessitate moving a recipient to a lower place on the list, although the Lab hopes these circumstances will be infrequent.
• 
  Being on the waiting list does not guarantee availability. It is possible that availability will be exhausted before all the names on the list are exhausted, that the release of an anticipated batch may never take place, that the release may take place later than anticipated, or that the donor will become geographically restricted (GR) before the release and become unavailable to recipients in the defined area (Oregon and southern Washington).
• 
  Recipients for whom availability does not occur may choose to be placed on the subsequent list for the same donor at no additional cost if release of a future batch is anticipated and the donor has not become GR.
• 
  When samples become available, recipients will have 48 hours (excluding weekends) to respond to our attempt to contact them. If a response is not made to us, the recipient's name will be removed from the list and the Lab will proceed to the next person on the list.
• 
  Recipients who do not wish to use or ship samples within 2 days may Prepurchase (purchase and store). Please see our Prepurchase Policy .
• 
  The Lab requires that both the Recipient Intake Questionnaire , with the physician's signature of authorization, and the Recipient Consent Form , with the recipient's and the recipient's partner's signature notarized, be completed and turned into the Lab in order to place a name on the waiting list.
