The CDC issued a National Blood Collection and Utilization Survey (NBCUS) invitation to all U.S. blood collection centers and acute care hospitals that perform a minimum of 100 inpatient surgical procedures annually.
The survey aims to enhance federal agencies’ understanding of blood supply and demand, providing a reliable foundation for regulatory measurers and strategic planning. Survey outcomes will enable the federal government to track blood availability trends to ensure maintenance of an adequate supply of safe blood.
Facilities that meet the minimum annual surgical threshold should have received an email invitation from NBCUS. Eligible members are encouraged to complete the survey no later than April 26, 2024.
Members with questions may contact Kelsey Ostergren at the MHA.
