Angel MedFlight Worldwide Air Ambulance is contributing to positive patient outcomes

Angel MedFlight Worldwide Air Ambulance is launching an educational campaign to highlight how air medical transports impact patient outcomes. The "Elevating Outcomes" initiative emphasizes the importance of patients having access to the specialty care they need to achieve optimal outcomes. Angel MedFlight, one of the largest fixed-wing air ambulance providers in the US, routinely transfers patients to Centers of Excellence across the country for innovative care options not available elsewhere.

Angel MedFlight's outreach efforts are designed to support Case Managers and Discharge Planners who help patients seeking out-of-area medical experts for treatment. Research shows that many families are unaware that patients can be safely flown hundreds or thousands of miles on medically configured jets staffed with Critical Care clinicians. Air ambulance providers remove geographic barriers to life-changing care.

The first installment of the Elevating Outcomes campaign features profiles of two critical patients.
