Medical Evacuation Service

What country do you reside in?

I use WorldMed, a AIG company, for Americans....

Here in Vietnam, it is SOS.

You posted on the Laos branch so I’ll answer as such.

I’ve always assumed that insurance and all the other trappings of the modern world would have no affect until I hit Thailand and I planned accordingly. I figure by the time they bring my butt to a hospital in a town big enough to land planes, and make the arrangements to fly me out of there, I’m probably well already. I’ve never seen a hospital in country that takes a Visa card for instance.

I called the local helicopter company and left their details with someone. They are $1500 an hour and probably go about 150 knots (visa accepted). The hospital in Udonthani Thailand is allowed ambulances across the friendship bridge at any hour. I don’t use evac insurance as I live in a country that has the worst healthcare of all the modern industrialized nations, prefer Thailand.
