We accept all major credit cards, personal checks (in some instances), bank cashier’s check, money orders, or cash.

All of our costs are included within our price: ground transportation, the cost of the medical crew, equipment, and the transport itself. Any changes to costs that might occur as a result of changing patient conditions would be made prior to a transport and with the full knowledge of the customer.

Yes, there is an alternative that is generally less expensive. We offer a mid-range Ford E-Series passenger van that is loaded with value yet still provides a clean, spacious, and comfortable ride. The Ford series is the perfect choice for patients traveling alone up to sixteen hours in duration.

We understand that this can happen. It doesn’t happen often, but when it does, we don’t want you to incur any charges, if possible. In most cases, if the patient becomes unstable and for some reason needs to delay the trip and it’s more than 24 hours prior to the planned transfer, we will work with you to adjust the transport. Within that 24-hour window, there would be a cancellation charge that could be applied to a later transfer when the patient is able to go. If it happens shortly before the trip and we have already repositioned a vehicle, you will be charged only the actual costs incurred up to that point.

There are several factors that determine cost. The method of transport (air or ground), the distance transported, and the medical staff configuration. Since medical transportation can range in cost from a few thousand dollars to fifteen thousand dollars it is necessary to call one of our Medical Transportation Specialists to discuss your particular situation to determine the most appropriate and affordable way to transport the patient.

The best answer is very rarely. The policies of insurance companies are constantly changing and the best way to find out if all or part of your trip is covered is to call us. We will check everything for you.

Most of the time the insurance doesn’t cover the state to state transport. We recommend checking to see if they are able to reimburse you. If so, we can provide them with any information to help with that process.

No, you are required to submit all claims for reimbursement from your insurance company.

When comparing S.O.S. Medical Inc to other provider’s quotes, please be sure to obtain their quote in writing for your protection. Furthermore, please compare the level of care, number of team members, education and capabilities of the team members. Many providers send one team member and/or they are basic trained emergency personnel such as Basic EMT’s on stable basic life support transports.

We never expect the worst to happen but with S.O.S. Medical Inc, you always have our highly trained team on board our vehicles regardless of the patient’s status. If an emergency should arise, they are there to provide care immediately. If anything unexpected happens, transport will divert to a local ER or call 911.
