List of blood donation agencies in the United States
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 45% of transfused blood in the US.[1]
- America's Blood Centers, a major network of non-profit community blood centers founded in 1962.[2] Most of the independent blood centers on this list are ABC members, and these account for approximately half of the US blood supply.[3]
Regional organizations
This is a list of organizations by state or territory. ARC and UBS are included in areas where they have donor centers. Some of the names are very similar but refer to different organizations.[5][6]
