LAKE COUNTY, Calif. – It was lunch time on the shore of Clear Lake, another relaxed day.
Without warning, Linda’s husband John slumped over in his chair, his skin a pale gray.
She did the right thing – dialed 911.
Soon they heard the welcome sound of a REACH helicopter landing nearby.
With practiced skill and appropriate speed, John was airlifted to the hospital.
He’s back home now, and John and Linda are enjoying each day together. Because they were insured REACH for Life members, they had no expenses for the REACH air ambulance transport.
In life-threatening emergencies, every minute counts. Rapid care and air transport can mean the difference between life and death.
Linda and John’s story illustrates how unexpected events can catch you off guard–emergencies can happen–at work, at home, or on the road while traveling.
REACH Air Medical Services offers a low-cost air ambulance membership program with a very reasonable annual cost of only $50 for an entire family.
Membership covers the gap between your insurance coverage and the remainder of the bill. Those fees could be thousands of dollars—and you could be responsible for paying them. These unexpected expenses on top of other medical bills can be financially devastating.
If you do not have current health insurance at the time of transport, membership covers 50 percent of the total charges of an emergency air ambulance transport by REACH; you will be responsible for the remainder of the bill.
REACH helicopters are “emergency rooms in the air” flown by experienced pilots, where care is administered by highly-skilled nurses and paramedics. To date, REACH has flown more than 55,000 life-saving missions.
REACH thrives by always doing what is right for patients. Whether they are the smallest of newborns or the frail elderly, whether injured or critically ill and in need of specialized health care at a distant hospital, REACH is standing by.
Protect your loved ones and your assets with a REACH for Life membership today. It’s easy to enroll.
