Air Ambulance Card to Provide Medical Evacuation to WorldClinic Clients
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (July 7, 2009) – Birmingham-based medical evacuation membership program Air Ambulance Card is partnering with WorldClinic Inc., a New Hampshire executive medical and telemedical program, to provide clients with medical evacuation and repatriation services.
“In a medical emergency, our patients know they have instant access to physicians who are familiar with their personal medical records. With Air Ambulance Card we are able to take that peace of mind one step further, bringing the patient home to the hospital of their choice,” said WorldClinic Director Dr. Dan Carlin.
Under the arrangement, WorldClinic patients hospitalized 150 miles or more from home, domestically or internationally, will be flown home aboard a dedicated medical aircraft to the U.S. or Canadian hospital of their choice. “We eliminate the high out-of-pocket cost of these flights, and strip out the headaches caused by claim forms and reimbursements. WorldClinic patients will do nothing more than pick up the phone and call, and we will bring them home,” said Air Ambulance Card Managing Partner Sam Jackson.
Based in New England, WorldClinic is a unique medical practice dedicated to providing exceptional medical and telemedical care to an exclusive group of corporate executives, individuals and families whose lifestyle may require immediate access to a personal doctor for any health issue, at any hour, from anywhere in the world.
Air Ambulance Card® provides travelers with prepaid hospital-to-hospital air ambulance service, domestically and abroad. The membership program offers services for a period of one year to families or individuals, and corporate accounts. Air Ambulance Card memberships are available to residents of the U.S. and Canada and cost $195 per year for individuals and $295 per year for families.
