As you get ready for your newborn’s arrival, you’ll take time to compare options on many products and services. To help you compare cord blood banks, we’ve provided a cord blood bank cost comparison.
As you compare cord blood banks, you’ll want to consider qualities like experience, accreditation, and reputation. And of course, price. We intentionally keep our prices lower because we firmly believe that cord blood banking should be as available to as many families as possible. You won’t find any hidden fees or other up-charges at New England Cord Blood Bank.
Also, while our competitor’s annual storage fees increase regularly, NECBB guarantees that your annual storage fee will NEVER go up.
