Family Cord Blood Banking Act
HR 2810, the Family Cord Blood Banking Act, allows individuals to deduct payments for private umbilical cord blood or tissue banking as medical expenses on their federal taxes. It directly affects people who pay for these private banking services through accredited providers meeting specific federal safety standards. The bill amends the tax code to add private cord banking services as a qualifying medical expense, effective for tax years starting after December 31, 2024. This change simplifies tax treatment for those using private cord banking without altering insurance coverage or public banking access.
