Cost of Cord Blood Banking Covered on Television

I found this little piece from an NBC news affiliate and thought it was worth passing along.

It discusses the cost of private cord blood banking and notes "Banking a baby's cord blood can initially cost between $1,200 and $1,800, plus an additional $100 to $125 a year."

The article doesn't provide much more than that, but it is nice to see mainstream news sources providing some perspective, no matter how slight, on the issue of cord blood banking.
