San Antonio Air Ambulance
Everyone agrees that Air Ambulance is an expensive service and therefore we are one of the only companies in the world to file a claim to your private insurance and try to recoup some or all the money you paid for your flight so you can get reimbursed.. What people need to understand about insurance coverage is they are more likely to assist with payment on an air ambulance transport if the patient can not receive the care they need where they are. They generally do not pay if it is just a matter of location convenience of the patient.
Insurance companies have stringent requirements regarding the conditions necessary to qualify for air ambulance cost reimbursement. The first place to look to see if your trip qualifies is your policy with a comprehensive health care insurer, such as Blue Cross & Blue Shield, AIG, Aetna, etc. In most cases, an urgent medical need, documented by a physician, is required for reimbursement. In some instances of medical necessity, Medicaid will cover San Antonio air ambulance services.
Travel medical insurance is for travelers who are leaving their home country. It provides coverage for medical emergencies and evacuations. Depending on the company selling it, it is sometimes called International Medical Insurance, International Travel Insurance, or Worldwide Medical Insurance. These medical travel insurance policies are much more likely to agree to an air ambulance transport quickly since the policy was purchased for that specific reason.
