I am considering Cordlife as well because it is the only multinational cord blood bank organised in HK. Although Cryolife has longer history in HK, it is run by local guy and not internationally operating. Do you know how long the anniversary discount last?

Am planning and doing analysis. Have only been to the seminar to Cryolife and Healthbaby, not yet go to Cordlife. Lab visit only went to Healthbaby, plan to visit Cryolife after CNY.

Have find out a website which give some information on how to choose a cord blood bank, hope it would be a useful reference for those who intend to.:-P :-P

After serious consideration, we decide to join HealthBaby because they have better storage technology and their terms & conditions are more fair compared with others.

Re: 有無媽咪會幫bb儲臍帶血啊？

miumiu809,

I have compared the contracts of HeralthBaby & that of CordLife and found that for HealthBaby, if client needs the cord blood for transplantation and if the physician found that the blook fails to meet the viability standard, there will be a penalty of US25K offered by HealthBaby or they will try their best to find a suitable cordblood for the client. However, for CordLife, there is no such penalty clause.

Besides, it seems that the storage technology is much better from HealthBaby than that of CordLife and I learnt that Red Cross HK will also deploy this new storage technology shortly.

btw, have u back to HK already???? I have delivered my baby on 1st of May already. When is your due date??

Re: 有無媽咪會幫bb儲臍帶血啊？

hi piggy2007,

thank for so much for your useful information!!
好耐冇見

如果日後真的有需要用時, 再要加埋the blood fails to meet the viability standard.... 真係失望到想死lor!!
us$25k 相等於hk$195000, 當如一個保險都係好嘅.

不過, 點先為之"fails to meet the viability standard"呢? 我地又點知呢? 佢大可以一句話唔適合就可以了事, 我地跟本唔會知道..

係咪?

我都知道"babyhealth" 嘅storage technology 係現時最好, 全電腦設計, 唔需要開開合合個storage case.咁就可avoid d溫度上上落落, 咁唔會令內的stem cell 的生存律下降.

不過呢, 我有一個非常重要的concern, 就係我會save在hk ,但人在usa, 如有需要用時, 要另外付admin fee搵專人send 返去usa.
雖然2間公司都說這個絕不是一個問題, 但cordlife似乎係一間semi-international嘅公司, 而且usa有研究分公司.
好似connection 會完善過"babyhealth"

"babyhealth" 係一間台灣公司, 要佢地同usa有connection, 好似點都覺得冇咁好...

你覺得呢? 比d意見我呀!!thx

but anyway, 我5月26日會去參觀"babyhealth"個lab.
到時再決定, 係呢, 如果當你refer我, 可以大家有$500 discount 架wor! 不如你send 你個電話number比我, 因為我如果5月26日一有決定就要決定join which company 嘞.
因為我會在6月14日開刀.

我返咗來個幾月了, 時時在hk行街, 去bb展好開心

你湊bb點呀? 恭喜晒你呀!!!

Re: 有無媽咪會幫bb儲臍帶血啊？

miumiu809,

According to the contract, "viability standard" should be given out by the physician that helped u to do the transplantation so in case when the physician found that the cord blood fails to meet the viability standard, such penalty clause applies. Besides, HealthBaby can also add an additional clause to commit to collect the cord blood within 24 hours for processing (by separate clause signing) If u confirm to use HealthBaby, make sure that they will commit on this as well. If u confirm to use HealthBaby, pls PM me so that I could give u my details to refer u la.

Your requirements may be a little different from me because u need to consider the transfer to the cord blood to overseas as well which CordLife may have a better position because of its international presence.

My baby is okay except I was a bit tired for the mid-night breast feeding....

When do u have your EDD???

"viability standard" should be given out by the physician that helped u to do the transplantation -->係wor, 咁即係決定你在於個physician, 而唔係babyhealth d staff. 咁都有保障d!!

add an additional clause to commit to collect the cord blood within 24 hours for processing (by separate clause signing)-->
咁如果我人在usa, 都可以叫佢加呢一項嗎?
呢一樣係咪你自己諗出來, 要求佢地加架呢?
咁唔知我叫佢地加一d有關運送去usa嘅commitment得唔得呢?
你覺得我仲有d咩要注意/ 叫佢地加呀?

你餵全人奶嗎? 唔知我餵唔餵到啊...
我今日醫生confirm咗我可以6月14日開刀, 因為亞b係
中-大碼b

所以早過預產期2weeks1day都得.
今日見到亞b成隻蝦米咁卷埋一pat好得意.

Re: 有無媽咪會幫bb儲臍帶血啊？

hi manstap,
你好, thanks for your comment!

1: 不過, 關於AABB認證:
healthbaby 官方網頁話自己有美國AABB認證架wor:
http://www.healthbaby.hk/hk-certificate.asp
**剛confirmed, 台灣healthbaby 有aabb, 香港未有.

在"parent's guide to cord blood"果個網上said: 在在singapore 的cordlife lab 有AABB 認證, 咁即係hk個lab未獲.
**剛confirmed cordlife's staff, 佢地說hk未有aabb認證**
STORAGE: Laboratories are located in Singapore and Hong Kong. The Singapore laboratory has AABB accreditation.

2: will not gamble to some company who may"lost " this valuable stem cells saying its accident and compensate to refund back the money to u. --->
但係, 就算cordlife冇呢個保障, 咁都唔代表佢地唔會有任何過失架wor, 就算唔係人為過失. 一樣唔可以保證d stem cell唔會壞死/ 用唔到/唔夠active..... 係咪?

3: listed companies usually are monitored closely by public & gov--->
咩係"listed companies"? 我唔係好明?!
即係cordlife 先係listed company嗎?

不過, 今日我問過醫生, 佢話3間公司嘅質素/ 醫學技術唔係有太大分別wor...

仲有, 頭先cordlife 個staff話, 佢地會送一個"危疾保險"比daddy or mommy, 十萬蚊.

(貪小便宜嘅我又覺得幾好wor! 因為我之前想買個50萬危疾保險都要成$500幾蚊一個月架

)
咁而家cordlife有得送, 而且又平$4130 wor!. :mrgreen:
