In case of serious injury or life-threatening illness, MedEvac can transport you to a capable medical facility. Depending on the patient's criticality, terrain, and distance, the mode of transportation may vary from a ground ambulance to a helicopter, or fixed-wing aircraft. The latest development in air evac allows passengers to have access to a portable ICU in a standard passenger Boeing 747. Insurance companies call upon regional operators to evacuate casualties, and international medical and travel insurance policies have an air evacuation benefit. But be sure to read the benefit carefully to understand the limits, as the air evacuation benefit only gets you to the closest place capable of treating you, usually not back home.
