Air Ambulance, Medevac, and Casevac: What’s the Difference?
While these terms are often used interchangeably, there are some distinctions.
Air Ambulance
This refers to a specially equipped aircraft that transports sick or injured people in a medical emergency or over distances where time, speed, and professional care are crucial.
Medevac (Medical Evacuation)
This term is a broader concept that covers the safe and timely moving of patients from the scene of an accident or a medical facility to a hospital where they can receive more comprehensive medical care.
CASEVAC (Casualty Evacuation)
This military term refers to the evacuation of casualties from a dangerous situation to a safer location but without expected en-route medical care.
Air Ambulance Pilots & Medical Staff
In an air ambulance, our skilled pilots focus on ensuring a safe and swift flight. The medical care is managed by our team of healthcare professionals, including doctors and nurses who specialize in aeromedical care. The medical staff and equipment onboard each flight are customized based on the patient's health condition.
Insurance Coverage and Family Accommodation
While we do not directly assist with insurance matters, we can provide the necessary documentation for you to process insurance claims where applicable. Furthermore, we understand the importance of family presence in such challenging times; thus, we allow family members to travel in the air ambulance with the patient whenever possible.
