We arranged the main problem and the background factor of the transplantation from a viewpoint of health economics. As a result, we guessed that the people's recognition to public value of the transplantation system was low. And it was one of the fundamental factors to disturb the transplantation. In addition, we researched the explanation method and the case report about a health economics value of transplantation. According to the review, health economics value of transplantation should be accounted by cost-effectiveness (performance). Our country have to promote positively the transplantation, because the cost-effectiveness (USA$/QALY and USA$/DALY) of the transplantation is high.
