Mountain State Blue Cross Blue Shield

Mountain State Blue Cross Blue Shield has partnered with CorCell to offer Mountain State members a $350 discount on cord blood banking through CorCell's Saving Baby's Cord Blood™ Program. The five minutes it takes to save a child's umbilical cord blood could prove to be a once in a lifetime opportunity to protect your child or other family members from a growing number of life threatening diseases. Umbilical cord blood is a unique source of stem cells, like those found in bone marrow, and provide the most potent supply of these life giving cells.

Mountain State Blue Cross Blue Shield (MSBCBS) serves all of West Virginia's 55 counties plus Washington county, Ohio. MSBCBS is an independent licensee of the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association. Any member enrolled in a Mountain State health plan is eligible for the CorCell discount.  You can give the gift of cord blood preservation to your child, grandchild, niece, nephew, friend or other loved one with a CorCell Gift Certificate.
