Why to Consider AirMedCare Network Membership
Imagine needing emergency medical help and not worrying about the cost. That’s what AirMedCare Network (AMCN) offers. With over 320 locations in 38 states, AMCN is the largest air medical flight membership program in the U.S. It includes top providers like Air Evac Lifeteam, Guardian Flight, Med-Trans Corporation, and REACH Air Medical Services. Many of the largest Air Ambulance providers do not offer membership’s financial peace of mind. Those that do offer membership options have smaller coverage areas than AMCN and cannot access the extensive pre-hospital capabilities of our entire Global Medical Response family.
Why Membership Matters
For just $99 a year ($79 for seniors over 60), an AMCN membership ensures you won’t pay anything out-of-pocket only if you’re transported by an AMCN provider. This is a big deal because many insurance plans have high deductibles, leading to hefty bills after emergencies.
The High Cost of Air Ambulance Services
High Deductibles: Did you know 81% of health plans have deductibles? And 24% of those are high-deductible plans. Families with these plans pay an average of $4,332 out of pocket.
Membership Benefits: AMCN covers co-pays, deductibles, and any transport costs not covered by insurance. This means zero out-of-pocket expenses if flown by an AMCN provider.
Uninsured? No Problem: Even if you lose your insurance or don’t have any, AMCN membership guarantees no out-of-pocket expenses.
How AMCN Helps Medicare Patients
Medicare Part A: Air ambulance isn’t covered. AMCN membership provides 100% coverage only when transported by our network providers.
Medicare Part B: Air ambulance transports are covered, but patients must pay a 20% copay, averaging $1,000-$2,000. AMCN membership covers this copay or denials of coverage.
Extra Benefits
Cross-Country Peace of Mind: AMCN membership is valid with any AMCN provider across our expansive network in 38 states. It goes with you when you or a covered household member travel.
Supporting Lifesaving Services: Your membership helps fund the aircraft that provide lifesaving missions – especially in rural areas where access to appropriate hospital care is limited by distance and availability.
Teladoc Partnership: AMCN members get discounted rates for Teladoc, a trusted telehealth provider available 24/7.
Common Questions
Who’s Covered?: Your membership covers all residents under one roof, including college students and those in permanent care facilities.

An AMCN membership offers financial peace of mind before, during and after medical emergencies, ensuring no out-of-pocket expenses for air medical transport for our members treated within our network of providers. It’s a valuable investment for families, especially those with high-deductible insurance plans, Medicare or the uninsured. With easy household coverage, everyone under your roof is financially protected against unexpected bills and membership fees help ensure continued access to lifesaving care in your community.
