New Develpments in Medical Transportation: Just One Call

The most time consuming and often frustrating experience for the client ( purchaser ) is having to call several medical transport services be it air ambulance, ground transport, airline medical escort etc in order to transport a loved one.

It often takes several hours and ten (10) or more phone calls to various medical transport servies. One then waits 30 minutes to several hours or even until the next day to receive all the quotes. There are so many prices and services from which to choose.

You end up calling three to five air ambulance companies for just jets( Lear jet / Citation jet / Beech jet) or just prop-jets (e.g. King Air / Cheynne) on twin engine aircraft single engine, twin engine,. After comparing the air ambulance services and finding them too costly one proceeds to look for alternatives or options such as medical travel escort on an airline. After realizing that your loved one cannot “sit up” for ” “take off and landing”, one then calls another 3 -5 medical transport services that offers ground ambulance or a “stretcher van” and then waits for a 30 minutes to several hours for the quotes to return. Maybe your loved one is way over weight (morbidly obese) and you need specialty care. The calling process starts all over again for individuals weighing over 400 pounds.

One solution: ONE Call. Call a company that can provide several differnt options to fit your needs. You may want to call a transportation center such as the MED Transport Center. One call and you can get 5 different modes of medical transportation. A big time saver.
