A. Every blood service system shall furnish a blood donor, preceding or at the time of a blood donation, a concise, complete, written statement as to any benefit which may arise from the donation of blood. This statement shall include, at least, the system policy regarding blood replacement, benefits, if any, for blood program participation and designation of who shall be the recipient of any such benefits.
B. Every blood service system shall provide a form to the donor to be filled in by the donor, preceding or at the time of the blood donation. The form shall provide for the name, address, or location where the donor may be located for notification pursuant to Section 3 of this act.
C. It shall be unlawful for any blood service system, or its agent or employee, to make any representation, oral or written, that a donation of blood will or may result in benefits to the blood donor or his designee, such as the refund of any fees, blood credits, family protection and the like, unless such benefits will, in fact, accrue to the blood donor or his designee.
D. It shall be unlawful for any blood service system, or its agent or employee, to make any representation, oral or written, that blood or blood products are or will be provided free if such blood service system receives any fee or remuneration, whether directly or indirectly, for providing and/or transfusing blood or blood products.
