iDonate is a convenient way to answer required health history questions on the day of your blood donation. The questionnaire takes about 10 minutes. Save time by completing it online before your donation.
Visit idonate on the day of your donation to review donor education materials and complete your health history questionnaire. At the end of the questionnaire, you’ll receive a receipt with a QR code. Show your receipt containing your QR code to your Donor Specialist at your donation, and your responses will be scanned.
iDonate must be completed on the day of your donation. If the questionnaire is completed prior to 12:00 AM on the day of your donation, you will have to complete the questionnaire again at the time of your donation.

You have the opportunity to correct your answers at any time during the questionnaire by selecting the “Review” button. If you have already completed the questionnaire and printed your receipt, notify a Donor Specialist of your desire to change an answer.

If your receipt is lost, you will be asked to complete your health history questionnaire at your donation.
