Why Choose Viacord?

This website is not sponsored by Viacord.

Choosing to bank your baby’s cord blood is a huge decision, one of many decisions that you will be faced with during your pregnancy. I chose Viacord because I was impressed with their credentials but I was also impressed with their philosophy. I liked that they were not only an industry leader in cord blood banking but they are also highly involved in cord blood banking research.

· Viacord is owned by PerkinElmer, Inc, a global leader focused on improving the health and safety of people and the environment. I felt more comfortable going with a company that was part of a larger, financially stable corporation.

· Viacord’s Research Institute (VRI) is focused on developing potential new uses for cord blood and is currently collaborating with M.D. Anderson Cancer Center, Pfizer, Duke University, and the University of Massachusetts.

· Viacord has a state of the art storage facility located in the state of Kentucky. The site of the storage facility was carefully chosen for several reasons, one of which being a limited likelihood of natural disasters.

· Viacord offers several payment options including a baby registry and numerous financing plans. Viacord really does make cord blood bank affordable for just about any budget.

· Viacord offers the Sibling Connection Program, a unique partnership between ViaCord & Children's Hospital Oakland Research Institute (CHORI). This program provides ViaCord's comprehensive cord blood collection, processing and five years of storage at no cost to expecting parents who have a child in need of a transplant and meet the other enrollment requirements of the program. Today, ViaCord and CHORI have treated over 100 children with transplants.
