Can I donate PRBC directly?

Not directly through standard whole-blood donation — your unit is separated into PRBC + plasma + platelets at the blood bank. Through apheresis (double-red-cell donation) you can give two units of red cells in one visit. Apheresis donation has a longer cooldown (168 days).

What's the cost of one unit of PRBC at government blood banks?

Government blood banks across India charge a fixed processing fee of approximately ₹1,100 per unit of PRBC, regulated by the National Blood Transfusion Council. Thalassaemia, Sickle Cell, BPL, and certain other categories are exempt from the fee.

Most government blood banks in Raipur operate round the clock for emergencies. For elective transfusions, blood is usually issued during day hours after cross-matching, which takes 1–2 hours.
