Overview

Cord blood banks are facilities that store cord blood–the blood that remains in the placenta and umbilical cord after a baby is born. Cord blood is rich in stem cells, which are the building blocks of the blood and the immune system. Cord blood banks collect, process, and store cord blood. They also provide stem cell transplants for people with certain blood disorders. We rank cord blood banks based on their accreditation, transparency, and quality. We also consider their fees, policies, and procedures. We adjust our rankings quarterly to ensure that they reflect the most up-to-date information. We believe that cord blood banking is a valuable service. We hope that our rankings will help you find the cord blood bank that best meets your needs.
