Extends funding and permission for life-saving cell and cord blood transplant programs
This bill would extend two important programs that help people get life-saving cell and cord blood transplants. It would authorize more funding for the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program. It would also keep the Cord Blood Inventory program running for several more years. This means patients needing these treatments would continue to have access to them.
Today, the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program is authorized with a reference to $31,009,000, and the Cord Blood Inventory program is authorized only until the government's budget year 2026. If this bill passes, the C.W. Bill Young Cell Transplantation Program would be authorized to receive $33,009,000 for each of the government's budget years 2027 through 2031. The Cord Blood Inventory program's authorization would also be extended through the government's budget year 2031.
