SHIPPING

MEDICAL COURIER

Once you receive the kit after collection, check to make sure everything has been placed back into the kit: cord blood bag, cord tissue cup, maternal blood tubes, and completed documents. 

Call our medical courier at the number provided on the kit as soon as possible. Your call will dispatch our Medical Courier for hospital bed-side pickup, and rush your collection kit to our processing lab. Your baby’s stem cells are viable for up to 48 hours, so refrigeration or freezing is not necessary at this point. Our medical courier expedites shipping so the blood arrives at our lab within 12-24 hours.
