How does bed-to-bed coordination work?
Our coordination team manages the entire task from the patient's bed to his or her last bed
target bed. This includes the regulation of land ambulances, the receipt of medical updates
hospitals, plan airport transfers, ensure medical delivery at every stage, prepare planes
coordination of taking boarding and hospital facilities with stretcher elevators. Families and insurers
get constant updates throughout the process to ensure transparency and smooth operation
execution.

How long does the transfer take?
Transfer time can be applied to distance, type of aircraft, medical needs, location logistics and
airport restrictions. In the bidding phase, we offer realistic time estimates that take into account
boarding, customs, refueling and medical stabilization. The aim is to minimize the total transfer time
ensuring clinical safety throughout the entire task.
Logistics & Coordination
Can ambulances host special medical equipment?
