Private cord blood banking can be expensive. Depending on the bank, current promotions and whether you're storing cord blood, cord tissue or both, initial processing fees can run from roughly $500 to $2,500, with annual storage fees of $100 to $300 each year thereafter.
Donors are encouraged to contact a cord blood bank by the 35th week of pregnancy. The procedure for obtaining the cord blood involves clamping the umbilical cord at the time of birth. The small amount of blood remaining in the umbilical cord is drained and taken to a cord blood bank. It is free to donate. Read more about cord blood donation and options for umbilical cord banking and donation on the web site of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
