The air ambulance is used to attend many different types of emergency ranging from road traffic accidents to accidents in the workplace and at sporting events.
The air ambulance is highly maneuverable and compact and can land almost anywhere.
Choosing an air ambulance is far different from making a reservation for a commercial, business or pleasure flight.
People are used to looking for air transportation based on price, just as they may do for personal travel.
This means that a physician must certify that the transportation by air ambulance is indicated and that transportation by other means may endanger the patient.
Some plans require that the transport is a life threatening emergency or that the destination is the closest appropriate facility.
Medical escorts (Doctors, Nurses) are available for patients that can travel on commercial airlines but need minimal medical assistance during the flight.
Includes journey to the airport, check in and embarkation.
Medicare will not pay unless it is certain that the transport is a medical necessity.
We are able to submit a claim on behalf of the patient once an Advance Beneficiary Notice is signed and sent to us.
Medical evacuation may not involve moving the patient to their home country; it may be more appropriate to bring the patient to a location with quality medical care within the same region.
Medical helicopters are part of a team dedicated to provide that extra measure of support when it is needed most, when life is dependent upon quick, effective medical response.
Medicare will only cover ambulance services to the nearest appropriate medical facility that is able to give you the care you need.
If you choose to be transported to a facility farther away, Medicare's payment will be based on the charge to the closest facility.
