Apparatuses and techniques are described for programming data in memory cells while concurrently storing backup data. One or more initial pages of data are programmed into both a primary block and a first backup block in a first program pass. A power loss then occurs which can corrupt the data or otherwise prevent reading of the one or more initial pages of data from the primary block. The one or more initial pages of data are read from the first backup block and used to perform a second program pass in which one or more additional pages of data are programmed into the primary block. Single bit per cell data can be stored in a second backup block to decode the one or more initial pages of data as read from the first backup block.
