That's interesting, because I was diagnosed with hemochromatosis last year, and I go to the local blood donation center and bloodlet every 4 weeks. They don't consider it a standard donation, but a therapeutic phlebotomy. But both my blood doctor and the donation center state that my blood is still used as if it were a donation, and I don't pay anything.
