Established in 1998, LifebankUSA is owned by Celgene Corporation, a multinational biopharmaceutical company actively involved in cord blood and placenta-derived stem cell research.
LifebankUSA is currently the only company offering both cord blood and placenta-cord blood collection for families, making for an increased yield of stem cells during collection. Clients can elect to save just the cord blood or both, each service is independently priced.
Placenta-cord blood banking is nearly twice the price both for initial setup fees and ongoing storage, but includes the traditional cord banking service as well. Research surrounding it's use has been very encouraging, and for now at least, there's no alternatives in the United States.
For cord banking clients, both 6 and 12 month payment plans are available with no interest, as well as a 60 month plan (with some extra expense). 6 and 12 month interest free plans are available for placenta-cord banking as well, with a 48 month term available as well.
