AeroCare Medical Transport System
Compassionate, Global Air Medical Transport

AeroCare Medical Transport System, Inc. is a global leader in fixed-wing air medical transportation, delivering both domestic and international services with precision and care. With a strategic presence worldwide, its mission is to safely transport patients while upholding its core values of excellence in patient care, integrity, customer service and safety. Through seamless bed-to-bed medical transport, patients receive uninterrupted, high-quality care throughout their journey, treating each individual with the compassion and attention one would expect from a family member.

The company’s dedication to patient care starts with its in-house case managers, who meticulously coordinate every aspect of the transport process. From communicating with medical facilities to working directly with insurance carriers to confirm coverage or obtain pre-authorization, AeroCare handles the complexities, allowing patients and their families to focus on what matters most—their health and well-being. This handson approach ensures a smooth, stress-free transition, knowing that experienced professionals oversee every journey detail.

For over 30 years, AeroCare has been at the forefront of air ambulance services, transporting patients from hospitals, rehabilitation centers, specialized care facilities and private residences. Whether the need is for an intra-state transfer or an international medical flight, the same exceptional standard of care is maintained—matching what one would expect in a hospital ICU. Its bedside-to-bedside service guarantees that medical crews stay with patients from initial pickup to final destination, ensuring continuity of care and providing invaluable peace of mind for patients and their families during critical times.

In addition to private air ambulance services, AeroCare offers a cost-effective alternative for stable patients who can travel on commercial flights with medical supervision. Its medical escort services provide a safe, economical option for those who may not need the full resources of a private air ambulance. Before each trip, AeroCare conducts a comprehensive medical assessment to ensure the patient is fit to fly. Once approved, it takes care of all the travel arrangements—from securing firstclass or business-class seats to arranging ground transportation and completing necessary airline and medical paperwork.

Throughout the journey, a registered nurse or flight paramedic accompanies the patient, ensuring they receive attentive care every step of the way. Upon arrival, the medical escort provides a thorough post-flight report, ensuring a smooth handover to the receiving medical team.

AeroCare is also renowned for its specialty transport services, thanks to highly trained advanced practice nurses, registered nurses, respiratory therapists and paramedics. For critically ill patients, such as those in neonatal intensive care (NICU), AeroCare offers specialized equipment, including transport incubators, ventilators and cardiac monitors, ensuring safe transport for high-risk newborns. Additionally, AeroCare is equipped to handle ECMO (extracorporeal membrane oxygenation) transport, a sophisticated life-support method that boosts oxygenation, ventilation and cardiac output for patients in critical need.

Since 1998, AeroCare’s Special Operations Group (SOG) has played a pivotal role in organ transplantation, providing rapid, time-sensitive transport of organs and organ procurement teams. Working closely with major transplant centers and local organ procurement organizations, AeroCare has helped save countless lives through these specialized services. The SOG uses a fleet of specially equipped vehicles to ensure organ procurement teams reach their destinations as quickly and safely as possible, offering a lifeline to patients awaiting transplants. One grateful family shared, “Jennifer was our guardian angel. This team works miracles, and my family and I will be forever thankful.”

AeroCare’s resolute commitment to patient care, safety and efficiency has made it a trusted name in air medical transport. Whether providing air ambulance services, medical escorts or life-saving organ transport, AeroCare is dedicated to ensuring that every patient receives the highest level of care during some of life’s most critical moments.

“I am very excited for AeroCare to join forces with AdaptHealth,” states Steve Griggs, CEO. “The combined company is positioned to transform our industry and positively impact the lives of chronically ill patients across the country. Our management team and employees look forward to working with AdaptHealth to build an even stronger business, sharing best practices across each organization to drive operational efficiencies and create enhanced opportunities for our patients, referral sources and other stakeholders.
