The right transport — not the most expensive
Many search for “air ambulance”. Sometimes it is required. Often ground ICU or commercial escort solves the case better at lower cost.
| Option | Best when | Limits | Relative cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ground ICU ambulance | Europe / Turkey routes; continuous monitoring without altitude | Longer transit on very long distances | Usually most accessible |
| Commercial-flight escort | Stable, fit-to-fly patient; long / intercontinental distance | Depends on airline approval (MEDIF) | Mid (well below private jet) |
| Air ambulance (partner) | Critical/unstable patient; time-critical; ICU at altitude needed | High cost; overflight logistics | Highest |
Mediurg does not automatically sell a jet. The coordinating physician proposes the modality after assessment. When dedicated air is needed, we coordinate with partners — without presenting Mediurg as a jet fleet operator.
