From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Nearly every hospital in the United States has a blood bank and transfusion service. The following is a list of groups that collect blood for transfusion and not a complete list of blood banks.

National organizations

  • American Red Cross (ARC), specifically the biomedical services division. The ARC provides about 35% of transfused blood in the US.[1]
  • America's Blood Centers (ABC), North America's largest network of non-profit community blood centers.[2] Most of the independent blood centers on this list are ABC members, and these account for approximately 60 percent of the U.S. blood supply.[3]
  • Blood Centers of America (BCA), a national cooperative of independent blood centers.[4]
  • Alliance for Community Transfusion Services (ACTS) is a strategic and operational alliance of independent blood centers that collect, process and distribute nearly 2 million blood products to patients in more than 750 hospitals and healthcare facilities throughout the United States. ACTS administers the nationwide emergency blood reserve program known as the Blood Emergency Readiness Corps (BERC).[5][6]
  • New York Blood Center enterprise Founded in 1964 is a nonprofit organization that is one of the largest independent, community-based blood centers in the world. NYBC, along with its operating divisions Community Blood Center of Kansas City, Missouri (CBC), Innovative Blood Resources (IBR), Blood Bank of Delmarva (BBD), and Rhode Island Blood Center (RIBC), collect approximately 4,000 units of blood products each day and serve local communities of more than 75 million people in the Tri-State area (NY, NJ, CT), Mid Atlantic area (PA, DE, MD, VA), Missouri and Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, Rhode Island, and Southern New England. NYBC and its operating divisions also provide a wide array of transfusion-related medical services to over 500 hospitals nationally, including Comprehensive Cell Solutions, the National Center for Blood Group Genomics, the National Cord Blood Program, and the Lindsley F. Kimball Research Institute, which — among other milestones — developed a practical screening method for hepatitis B as well as a safe, effective and affordable vaccine, and a patented solvent detergent plasma process innovating blood-purification technology worldwide.
