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.

Wesley Weysham, Retired Firefighter and our own Medic died helping crash victim

On Sunday, February 24th, we lost a dear friend and medical professional Wesley Weysham. Wesley had been working with ACC Medlink for a while and was loved by our crew, patients, and their families alike. He was one of our best and most caring medics and will be missed immensely.

The accident happened around 4:30 a.m. when a 32-year-old driver who authorities suspected had been driving under the influence stopped his truck in the far left lane of southbound Interstate 75 near the U.S. 301 exit in the Tampa area. That’s when someone didn’t see the parked truck and hit it.

Weysham was driving on I75 when he came across a scene he was familiar with. Weysham parked his vehicle and went to give medical assistance. It was during this time that another driver didn’t see the initial accident and crashed his car into the truck, which fatally hit Weysham.

Wesley was a Navy veteran, retired firefighter, and member of Sarasota K9 Search & Rescue. Wesley always put others first, even without regard for his own safety. His untimely death is a great loss to his family and friends.

Wes was a valued member of our ACC Medlink crew and will be remembered as an honorable, caring person. We will always remember him as our friend and his presence will be missed.
