The CCB Cord Blood Advantage

California Cryobank is proud to be the only sperm bank in the world to offer the once in a lifetime opportunity to store your baby’s cord blood stem cells as part of our standard service.

Through our Family Cord Blood Services division, the CCB Cord Blood Advantage provides CCB families with the best and most economic family cord blood banking option available anywhere in the industry. The CCB Cord Blood Advantage includes:

  • A specialized collection kit

  • Delivery by private medical courier to our facility
  • Free state-of-the-art cord blood processing
  • Three years of storage

All for only $645—that’s over $1000 off the Family Cord Blood Services regular price. Additional long term storage packages ranging from 5-20 years may also be added. Many other accredited banks charge over $2000 (plus storage fees) for the same services.

How can CCB provide the exact same service as other cord blood banks for so much less?
We can’t—which is why we have to reserve this exclusive offer for CCB families pregnant via donor sperm. While we strongly believe it is in every family’s best interest to store their baby’s cord blood, we are especially passionate about helping CCB families take advantage of the opportunity since children with only one genetic parent will have limited access to potentially compatible stem cells should a need ever arise.

How does the CCB Cord Blood Advantage work?
To take advantage of this exclusive offer, simply report your pregnancy to us by calling 866-927-9622 x7100 or fill out the Outcome of Insemination Report online. A Parent Service Representative will contact you shortly to confirm your information and get the process started with Family Cord Blood Services.

What are cord blood stem cells?
The blood contained in the umbilical cord, which nourishes your baby throughout development, is also a rich source of stem cells. Easily collected by your caregiver immediately following birth, these stem cells are known to currently treat over 70 diseases including many leukemias, lymphomas, and immune disorders. Not only they are a perfect match to your baby, but they also have the potential to be used by other family members. Unlike embryonic stem cells, cord blood stem cells are completely non-controversial to collect, store and use.

What is cord blood banking?
Cord blood banking is a once in a lifetime opportunity to collect and save your baby’s cord blood stem cells. It is a potentially lifesaving gift you can give to your baby and family by providing access to one of the most promising medical treatments of the future. Current research is also targeting potential future treatments for diabetes, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and heart disease.
