Cord blood banking
$1,500-$2,500 + storage
Can You Write Off Cord Blood Banking?
Short answer: Generally no: storing cord blood for possible future use isn't treating a current condition.
It may count if a family member has a condition the cord blood will treat.
Records to keep: Keep receipts, statements (1098, 1098-T, 1099, W-2G), and a note of what each cost was for. Compare itemizing to the 2026 standard deduction before you claim.
