Currently, many medical insurance plans (in Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Rhode Island only) will cover the cost of the tissue typing for registration with the marrow donor program. Please bring your insurance card to the donor drive.

If your insurance will not cover the tissue-typing fee, we are able to cover the cost of your test. However, if you would like to make a tax-deductible donation to help us pay for donor testing costs, we would greatly appreciate it.
