  • $TMDX investors can join this case to be notified about potential recovery.
Case Details:

Between February 28, 2023, and January 10, 2025, TransMedics assured investors that its Organ Care System (OCS) and National OCS Program (NOP) were revolutionizing organ transplantation while maintaining strong ethical and financial practices. The company emphasized rising demand, market leadership, and regulatory compliance to support its revenue growth.

However, multiple investigations revealed that TransMedics engaged in fraudulent overbilling, coercion, and unsafe practices. The company allegedly forced transplant centers to use its costly services, overcharged hospitals through unnecessary private jet transport, and provided organs that had been rejected by reputable surgeons.

On February 21, 2024, U.S. Representative Paul Gosar accused TransMedics of misusing corporate resources and engaging in price gouging, highlighting that the cost of a single-use OCS cassette had jumped from $7,000 to over $60,000.

On January 10, 2025, Scorpion Capital released a report uncovering widespread kickbacks, forced service bundling, and falsified safety records. The report accused TransMedics of engaging in an "organ trafficking scheme", in which rejected organs were allegedly steered toward specific transplant centers in exchange for using the OCS system. It also revealed that unlicensed foreign surgeons and poorly trained technicians were handling organ retrieval and transport, leading to botched procedures and wasted donor organs.

Following this news, $TMDX dropped 12.3%.

Based on these events, $TMDX investors filed a lawsuit against TransMedics, claiming the company:
  • It misled investors by concealing fraudulent billing practices and coercive business tactics.
  • It downplayed serious ethical concerns, including safety risks and improper organ handling.
Investors believe TransMedics misrepresented its financial integrity and operational ethics.
