Short Answer
The BDOI Humanity Score™ is a lifetime donor-impact score designed by BDOI® to recognise and represent a donor's contribution through their recorded blood and blood-component donations.
Each eligible donation contributes points to the donor's Humanity Score™ according to the BDOI® scoring methodology. Different donation types have different score ranges because the contribution and donation frequency can differ by donation type.
Detailed Explanation
The BDOI Humanity Score™ helps donors see their donation journey as a measurable lifetime contribution.
BDOI® assigns a score range to different types of donations. For example, the current BDOI® methodology assigns:
- Platelet donation: 1–4 points per donation
- Plasma donation: 1–2 points per donation
- Double red cell donation: 2–4 points per donation
- Whole blood donation: 1–3 points per donation
- Directed blood donation: 1–3 points per donation
- RBC donation: 1–2 points per donation
- Granulocyte donation: 1 point per donation
- Peripheral blood stem cell donation: 1 point per donation
Your lifetime Humanity Score™ is therefore connected to your recorded donation history and the applicable value assigned to each donation type.
The score is intended primarily as a recognition and motivation system. It should not be interpreted as an exact measurement of the number of patients saved or a medical outcome.
