Does this actually happen? I see this concern mentioned several times here, but always as a hypothetical. Has there been any research done to see if donors do indeed receive inferior care?

How could you gather this data, and who could publish the study and be trusted by the public?

Seems like it would be straightforward to compare care and outcomes between donors and non-donors and see how they differ.

In any case, I'm not the one making the claim, so I'm not the one who has to back it up.
