production

Since the long-lived NBC - hospital drama ER - ER 2009 drew to a close, was CBS to fill in search of a new medical series to fill the gap. Carol Barbee was then hired to work with former transplant surgeon Steve Boman to develop a pilot episode for a drama series about a transplant hospital. Barbee decided to tell the series from three perspectives - those of the donor, the recipient, and the doctors. The Pittsburgh location was chosen on the basis that the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC) is the world's leading transplant center. The accident that near the hospital the rivers Allegheny and Monongahela River in the Ohio River flow serves as an allegory to the three perspectives from which the series is told. Barbee did her research for the series at the Cleveland Clinic with Dr. Gonzalo Gonzalez-Stawinski, who also acted as a mentor to the main actor Alex O'Loughlin . Dr. Robert Kormos, co-director of the UPMC's Heart Transplant Unit, was also involved in the series. Thomas E. Starzl , a pioneer in transplant medicine who attended the set, serves as inspiration for the fictional transplant pioneer who claims to be the father of Dr. Miranda Foster turns out.

The pilot was filmed in Western Pennsylvania in March and April 2009, with the closed Brownsville Tri-County Hospital and the David L. Lawrence Convention Center serving for the interiors. After the pilot episode was filmed and presented to the broadcaster, it initially received a series order for thirteen episodes. Recasts were made a short time later , so Julia Ormond and Joaquim de Almeida were exchanged for Alfre Woodard and Amber Clayton . Ultimately, the originally filmed pilot episode was dropped and a new episode was filmed as a premiere episode. For the emergency room and intensive care unit , a high-tech hospital set was built on the Paramount Pictures studio site in Los Angeles , where the interior shots were later taken, while the outdoor shots continued to take place in Pittsburgh.
