This bill amends the definition of a peer review committee in Iowa law by adding a new category for statewide nonprofit organizations that qualify as organ procurement organizations, as defined in section 142C.1. This change aims to recognize the role of these organizations in the peer review process, thereby enhancing the oversight and evaluation of organ procurement practices.

The addition of this new paragraph to Section 147.1, subsection 5, reflects the importance of including organ procurement organizations in peer review committees, which can contribute to improved standards and practices in organ donation and transplantation. The bill does not remove any existing language from the law but rather expands the definition to encompass these vital organizations.
