Air Life and
FireMed Memberships
Emergency air transport is available when you need it
most—when your life depends on getting to a medical facility as quickly
as possible. But the price tag for such transport can be a staggering $8,000
to more than $18,000. That’s why more than 30,000 families have
opted to join Air Life for just $50 a year. Members avoid all out-of-pocket
air ambulance expenses (after insurance payment), allowing them to focus
on getting well instead of getting a large medical-transport bill.
While Air Life flies anyone in medical need, member patients
pay nothing for their flight if flown by Air Life or one of its reciprocal
partners. Instead, Air Life bills the member’s
insurance carrier and accepts that payment as full.

Who’s covered?
Household membership includes all persons who are permanent residents
of the same single-family dwelling/noncommercial residence living together
as part of a family unit, but not to include roomers or boarders. Membership
benefits are also extended to include household members living in substitute
care (e.g., nursing homes) within your city and district ambulance service
areas.
The first person listed on the application form is designated
as the “Primary Member.” Anyone who joins a household after
the membership goes into effect can be included under the membership
72 hours from the date the “Primary Member” notifies us of
the addition. Only those persons who meet the membership eligibility
requirements and are listed in the membership record at the time services
are rendered are eligible for benefits.
Service area
Joining Air Life means you’re protected at
home and on the road. Air Life members pay nothing out-of-pocket for their
urgent medical flight—whether
transported by Air Life or its reciprocal partners:
