What options does MTI 24/7 provide for air medical transport?
As a global air medical transport service provider, we offer two primary medical transport options that cater to the unique needs of each patient, namely: fully-equipped air ambulances for critical patients and commercial medical escort services for stable individuals requiring assistance during travel.
Dedicated Air Ambulances
Our state-of-the-art air ambulances are veritable flying intensive care units, staffed by a skilled medical crew and equipped with advanced life-support systems. These aircraft are ideal for patients who are critically ill, unstable, or require specialized care during transport.
Our dedicated air ambulances offer numerous benefits to patients in need of critical care during transport:
Swift response: Our air ambulances can be dispatched quickly, ensuring that patients receive the care they need as soon as reasonably possible.
Comprehensive care: Our medical teams, consisting of physicians, nurses, and paramedics, provide a wide range of medical services, from basic life support to advanced critical care.
State-of-the-art equipment: Our air ambulances are equipped with the latest medical technology, including ventilators, defibrillators, and monitoring systems, allowing us to provide ICU-level air care.
Sea-level flights: Our sea-level flights maintain cabin pressure at sea-level altitude during transport, providing a safe environment for patients with conditions sensitive to air pressure changes.
Global reach: Our extensive network and partnerships allow us to provide air ambulance services worldwide, ensuring that patients can receive the care they need, no matter where they are.
Commercial Medical Escorts
For patients who are stable but still need support and medical supervision during travel, we provide commercial medical escort services, where a nurse or a paramedic accompanies the patient on scheduled flights.
Our commercial medical escort services offer several key advantages::
Cost-effective: Our medical escort services offer an affordable alternative to air ambulances for patients with less critical needs.
Personalized care: Our medical escorts provide one-on-one attention and support tailored to each patient's individual needs throughout the journey.
Comprehensive logistics: We handle all travel aspects, from bookings to medical facility coordination, allowing patients to focus on their health.
Peace of mind: With a dedicated medical professional by their side, patients and loved ones can travel with confidence and expert care within reach.
Emotional support: Our compassionate medical escorts offer emotional support and comfort to patients and their families during the travel experience.
Whether you require an air ambulance for a critical situation or a commercial medical escort for non-emergency travel, our team is committed to providing compassionate, patient-centered care every step of the way.

How much does air medical transport cost?
At MTI 24/7, we understand that the cost of air medical transport is a significant concern for patients. Rather than offering one-size-fits-all pricing, we provide personalized quotes based on a thorough evaluation of each patient's unique needs and situation:
Patient's medical condition complexity.
Ground transportation to and from airports.
Flight distance and locations (domestic or international).
Aircraft type (air ambulance or commercial flight with medical escort).
Our team will carefully assess your needs and provide a transparent, detailed breakdown of the costs involved.
Is air medical transport covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage for air medical transport varies depending on the specific policy and the patient's circumstances:
Insurance coverage varies by transport type (domestic or international).
The specific terms and conditions of the patient's insurance policy determine the extent of coverage for air medical transport, including deductibles, copayments, and out-of-pocket maximums.
The type of insurance, such as private insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, or travel insurance, can affect the level of coverage for air medical transport.
Insurance companies typically cover air medical transport when it is deemed medically necessary, which means the patient's condition requires immediate and rapid transportation that cannot be provided by ground ambulance.
We will organize your transport whether you are insured or not. Our experienced staff will work closely with you and your family to minimize out-of-pocket expenses whenever possible.
