What is ViaCord cord blood banking?

ViaCord gives families the opportunity to store stem cells from their babies' umbilical cord blood and cord tissue for possible future use in a transplant or regenerative medicine research.

Its laboratory is registered with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and certified under the Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) and by the Association for the Advancement of Blood & Biotherapies (AABB). ViaCord processes and stores cord blood and cord tissue stem cells in five-compartment bags in a lab just outside Cincinnati, Ohio, allowing portions of a stored unit to be used separately. This gives families the flexibility to use as much or as little of their stem cell unit as needed.

How does ViaCord work?

You can sign up with ViaCord online or by phone in just a few minutes. The company then sends you a health history questionnaire and service agreement, which you complete and return by email or fax. ViaCord also notifies your health care provider that you intend to bank your baby’s cord blood (and cord tissue, if you choose).

ViaCord sends you a collection kit with everything your health care provider needs to perform the collection on the day of delivery. One to two hours after the stem cells have been collected, call ViaCord customer service at the number provided, and the company will dispatch a medical courier to pick up the collection kit for transport to ViaCord’s lab for processing and storage. ViaCord lets you know as soon as the collection kit arrives at the lab.

After ViaCord receives the collection kit, the stem cell collection goes through an FDA-recommended process of cell separation to reduce red blood cells and unwanted plasma. The stem cells are then stored in a five-compartment storage bag and cryopreserved in storage tanks similar to ones used at major medical research facilities. If your family needs to use the stored stem cells, ViaCord works with your health care provider to provide the required documentation and samples. It also coordinates delivery to the treatment facility.

ViaCord cost

ViaCord’s cord blood and cord tissue banking prices at the time of publishing are:

  • Cord blood: $750 for processing, plus $185 per year for storage
  • Cord blood and cord tissue: $1,365 for processing, plus $370 per year for storage

Pricing also depends on the number of children whose stem cells you bank and whether you prepay for 20 or 25 years of storage. Promotional discounts may also be available. ViaCord’s listed processing prices don’t include the first year of storage.

Additional ViaCord services include Newborn DNA Guardian for $175, Newborn Digestive Health for $250, the Genetic Insights Panel for $750 and Whole Genome Sequencing for $2,500. Some of these services require cord blood banking.

ViaCord also offers six- and 12-month payment plans. Customers who choose a payment plan make monthly processing payments, while annual storage is billed separately.

The company deducts a $150 cancellation fee from your refund if you cancel cord blood banking before delivery.

ViaCord cord blood banking FAQ

What does ViaCord’s cord blood banking service include?

ViaCord’s service includes 24/7 on-call staff, a medical courier service to pick up and transport your collection kit to its lab, an FDA-approved cord blood collection bag and state-of-the-art processing and storage. As part of the company's standard cord blood report, it offers collection volume and cell counts.

Is ViaCord public or private?

ViaCord is a private cord blood bank. This means that only the family that pays to store the baby’s cord blood has access to the cord blood stem cells.

Is ViaCord FDA-approved?

Yes, ViaCord is registered with the FDA. You can confirm this registration by searching the FDA’s Human Cell and Tissue Establishment Registration (HCTERS) database.

Where is ViaCord's processing and storage lab?

ViaCord’s storage facility is located near Cincinnati, Ohio, and operates 365 days per year.

Does ViaCord offer placenta tissue banking?

ViaCord doesn't offer placenta tissue banking. It only processes cord blood and cord tissue.

Still have questions?

Is ViaCord worth it?

Yes, ViaCord can be worth it if you have decided to store your baby’s stem cells with a private bank and want both cord blood and cord tissue options. The company has more than 30 years of experience, operates an FDA-registered laboratory and stores stem cells in five-compartment bags that allow portions of a unit to be used separately. Its quality guarantee provides $35,000 toward an alternative source of cells if the cord blood fails to engraft during a transplant.

However, families looking for placenta tissue banking may need to consider another provider. At the time of publishing, ViaCord offers cord blood and cord tissue banking but doesn’t store placental tissue.

    We did a prenatal course at Memorial's and heard about what Viacord did. My wife took some classes and she did a workshop that they provided. The workshop explained the different services they had and we chose the cord blood option 'cause it looked like we wanted it for the future. I appreciated all of the options and how they explained it, how they show how we will use the cord blood in the future. The baby has siblings, and we could use the cord to help them get healthy. Our experience with the kit was easy and the people at the hospital helped us a lot with that, too. Everything was quick, and I will tell them to bank their baby's cord blood, because it's so easy and it can help their kids in the future. It's having an insurance for their kids.

      We had our baby a week ago, so the kit was picked up a week ago. We haven't paid for ViaCord yet or received any results. I don't know how long that normally takes. We were IVF, so it was really important to us to have that if there might be more complications down the road. We went through ViaCord because that was the one that my OB/GYN was familiar with, but there wasn't a huge price difference compared to other companies. They were within $200 of each other. ViaCord was great.

      We thought that the kit was gonna be like you open it, and it was pretty quick. It took about three hours of my husband and my mom and the doctors and nurses in trying to figure out what all we needed and what all needed labeled. That is something that I wasn't prepared for, and I wished ViaCord said, “Don't open the kit till you're there, so that everything's in there.” It took a lot longer and was not as easy as I thought. I thought it was going to be around 30 minutes, and it was quite a while. It was not quite self-explanatory. The other thing is I don't usually answer numbers I don't know. So, I missed the first three calls of the guy who was coming to pick up the kit. I didn't know that they were gonna call me and let me know. So, I was just watching for a text message or an email. But the guy that came and picked it up was great. But overall, I still would recommend it.

      We were recommended with our child's specialist to go with ViaCord. It's their company of choice. We are using it for future needs because we have two children. And we'll use it potentially for our firstborn. Initially, we were given a brochure. We sat on it for a minute. We didn't make any moves. But once we were closer to delivery date, I made a phone call, and that was it. The call took a couple of minutes. ViaCord sent us paperwork, emails back and forth, and everything was a breeze. They answered all our questions and sent over everything promptly. They said they would get back to us in four to six weeks. Given that the last couple weeks of potentially reaching delivery date, it gets a little hectic, so the fact that they kept things short and simple and to the point was very nice to see. We'll see in a couple weeks with the results. So far, things have been smooth as they can get. One less thing to worry about.

      My kids go to Phoenix Children's Hospital, and my son originally needed a bone marrow transplant. It was an option where we could save the cord blood so I got connected through the case manager. I got the referral from the hospital and then ViaCord called me. They had me give them the information that they needed. It seemed like it was easy to do everything. It was self-explanatory. Then, they sent me the box and information through the mail and email. They told me that I could save the cord blood for the future and maybe help the kids with different disorders. I learned that it could be helpful for sickle cell and different cancers.

      The team at ViaCord was very helpful. Just because we already had some experience with it, I didn't have too many questions for the person who reached out this time. But he sent me a very detailed email and showed me everything. I expected the kit in the mail. But the first time that we used ViaCord was when I found a lot more information about it. So, now, I knew what to do.

      When I brought my kit in with me to the hospital, the people there said they were familiar with it and that they do it all the time. So, they were able to collect the blood. They let me know that they were able to get a lot of blood from my daughter's birth and then they sent everything off. I’d let people know the benefits of saving a baby's cord blood and how it can help other people, and that everyone I spoke with at ViaCord was very knowledgeable and helpful, and they were always there to answer any questions I had.

      My family has a history of autoimmune and immunodeficient diseases, and one of them can be cured by a stem cell transplant at birth. I wanted to have that option just in case it happened to my baby. I did a search on ConsumerAffairs, and it matched with ViaCord, which led me to choose them. I was also having trouble finding other cord banking services that I liked. The specialists in ViaCord were responsive and fast to respond. I had specific questions and they even did further research so they could give me all the background and information.

The price was great because I compared with the cord blood banking, and they were really high.

      I looked up cord blood banking and ViaCord popped up. It was perfect. I had heard about it from my OB as well. The rep talked to me a little bit about it and gave me a pamphlet that I read. When I got home, I did a little bit more research about it. I haven't given birth yet, so I still have the box, but I'd recommend that others should absolutely do it.

      I highly recommend ViaCord. My doctor hosts seminars, and they told me about ViaCord in my visit at the office. I was told banking my baby’s cord could help with any serious illness for her. ViaCord's rep was friendly and informative. The kit showed up within a couple of days. They did it right away. It was nice, easy and seamless.

      I watched an ad for ViaCord while checking some information on the internet, and there are a lot of benefits. It’s good for the baby, which is why we thought of storing the cord blood. The rep was crisp and able to answer all my questions. They were not prolonging the details but they were short responses and cleared all my doubts. It was easy to communicate with ViaCord. They said the process is good for the baby. If the baby has any issues in the future, you can collect the tissues from the cord blood and they can do further procedures for that. I would love to recommend ViaCord. Everything was good and the process was smooth.

      A referral from a friend who used ViaCord led me to use me but so far, I'm dissatisfied based on the huge lack of communication from them. I have signed all the documents and paid for my cord blood kit. My baby is due in two weeks. However, I keep getting texts and emails saying that my documents aren't completed. I try to call the company, I leave messages, and they never call me back. So, I'm worried. I've paid all this money for the cord blood kit, and the day that the baby's born, I won't even be able to utilize it, because they keep telling me that something's incomplete. And I don't know what it is.
