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. But air patient travel is more than transportation. It is also a health care service operating under difficult and many times, changing circumstances, and, there is little government or other regulatory oversight of the air ambulance industry. It is very important for consumers to ask questions before making a decision. Mayo Clinic Medical Transport is there to help answer any questions. Here are questions to ask if you or a family member needs an air ambulance. |
