What is the minimum distance for your long-distance medical transport services?

We specialize in medical transportation for distances over 200 miles, including cross-country and coast-to-coast transport. Our services are specifically designed for interstate and long-haul journeys that require specialized medical care and comfort during extended travel.

How do you handle multi-state medical transportation journeys?

Our cross-country medical transport service operates nationwide with proper licensing in all 50 states. We handle all interstate requirements, provide consistent medical staff throughout the entire journey, and offer route planning that includes necessary medical stops and overnight accommodations for extended trips.

What are the costs associated with cross-country medical transport?

Long-distance medical transportation costs are primarily based on total mileage between destinations, the patient's medical needs, and any specialized equipment required. Unlike local services with hourly rates, our interstate transport operates on a comprehensive package pricing model, with many long-distance trips potentially qualifying for insurance coverage.

How far in advance should I book interstate medical transportation?

For optimal scheduling of cross-country medical transport, we recommend booking 7-14 days in advance, which allows proper coordination with medical facilities in different states, route planning, and arrangement of specialized equipment. For urgent interstate transfers, we offer expedited service when possible.

Can patients with complex medical needs be transported across state lines?

Yes, our interstate medical transport vehicles are equipped to handle patients with ventilators, feeding tubes, IV medications, oxygen requirements, and other complex medical needs. Our nationwide transport team includes critical care providers trained specifically for long-distance medical care during cross-country journeys.

How do you ensure patient comfort during cross-country medical transport?

Our long-distance medical transport vehicles feature hospital-grade stretchers with premium mattresses, climate control systems, entertainment options, frequent comfort breaks, and overnight accommodations for multi-day journeys. We prioritize patient dignity and comfort during interstate travel with significantly more space than standard ambulances.

Are RVs Safe for Medical Transport?

Although the thought of being transported in a large RV Motorhome vehicle with a built in restroom
Sounds ideal. There are many considerations that should be made especially considering safety.

Did you know that RVs are not DOT approved for medical transportation?

RV Motorhomes are basically stick homes built on top of a truck chassis. An accident in one could cause injuries and death to many.

RVs or Class A motorhomes are not subjected to the same extensive crash worthiness safety requirements as automobiles.

“The typically relatively small Class A motor home builder will then essentially build a stick-built home on top of that truck chassis. Unlike the extensive crash worthiness safety requirements for automobiles, the RV manufacturers may have little or no legal crashworthiness standards which apply to their work.”
