Taburit's Insurance Plan Advantages

Taburit is the only private umbilical blood bank in Israel that gives its customer an insurance plan as an integral part of the cost of service through cooperation with a leading insurance company.

Taburit and Sheba hospital believe that stem cells preservation involves other commitments of the company, in addition to the process itself. The company takes upon itself the responsibility to help families in time of need and relieve them from dealing with financial issues at a distressful time.

Taburit insures the baby, prior to his or hers birth, in order to provide the family with peace of mind.
Should the need arise, God forbid, Taburit's insurance covers all the expenses involved with any use of the preserved stem cells, with no limitations or reservations.

Coverage of Taburit's insurance plan

The cost of using the blood unit - unfortunately, once the need to use the umbilical blood stem cells arises, the families find out that it involves unplanned costs, which are not necessarily covered by the national health security or by the supplemental insurance. You also probably heard about families who couldn't finance the expensive treatments, the air fare and the cost of staying abroad and had to go on public campaigns to collect contributions and funds to save their child's life. Taburit is aware of how huge economical burden these costs lay on a family and therefore, in case of need, the insurance plan of Taburit covers for all the costs involved in the usage of the blood unit.

Locating a substitute blood unit - on rare occasions, despite all the control measures taken, the umbilical blood unit could be damaged or found unsuitable for transplantation, for instance if a mutation is found in the preserved cells, which prevents using them. In case that a medical authority requires the use of donated stem cells, Taburit will cover the expenses of locating a substitute unit of umbilical blood stem cells or bone marrow stem cells from global banks, and the costs of handling such a unit.
