NorthPoint, Inc. proudly sponsors, markets and administers the unique “NorthPoint /AirMed Membership Program” (“NorthPoint Assurance”) under the auspices of its partner, AirMed International., Inc., - a legendary service provider within the Global Medical Response family of companies.
In its 20+ year history AirMed has completed more than 30,000 missions from and to more than 150 countries. It has provided critical care in the air to a wide range of patients for myriad reasons: US presidents, foreign heads of state and royals, business leaders, dignitaries, celebrities and everyday workers and leisure travelers. AirMed a trusted “go to” medical air response service for, many of the world’s prominent hospital groups.
However, by far Its greatest honor has been providing the “military grade” urgent transport for thousands of members of the U.S. Marines and Army personnel under very active long-term Defense Department contracts.
“The Mission’s Human Importance guides every moment…From first call to the fastest Arrival”
AirMed’s 24x7x365 / 360-degree global coordination starts with Its advanced global operations center in the US. The Center is staffed by former FAA controllers and others specifically-skilled professionals.
The command center is not merely for global air traffic control. In coordination with AirMed bases in every region, it plans, assigns, monitors and assures each moment’s Rubic Cube of task synchronization and execution… flawlessly.
Simultaneous missions at various stages involve aircraft pre-positioning and prep, flight, medical, ground crew, fuel and supplies on time for each origination and touch-down point for each itineraries - in every direction (often in different countries and their languages). Real-time status monitoring and constant readjustments are essential.
Unlike other major air ambulance carriers, AirMed owns its entire fleet. Likewise, it directly employs all flight crews and medical staff, all of whom who undergo year round Intense training, testing and recertification. Employees are all constantly trained and re-certified to the highest standards of competence and safety. Aircraft are kept specially certified, meeting reqirements that vary among jurisditions.
AirMed’ unequaled preparedness, continuity and quality of care and comfort culminates in safety, the earliest departures and soonest arrival at the patient’s hospital destination.

We Hear You!
But do you really appreciate the complexity and high cost of that
High Stakes Gamble?
“I never needed such a service before.
If it ever happens, I’ll just deal with it.
“Afterall, what’s the worst that can happen?”
If hospitalized while traveling - in addition to your medical circumstance and other immediate concerns — you’ll be confronted by a daunting list of overwhelming logistical and financial challenges never imagined:
Urgently finding and evaluating different medical air transport providers
Urgently negotiating complex contracts/payments while possibly in a foreign land
Urgently choosing an integrated carrier not just one that tag-teams one or more charter jets (some of which are passenger jets that need to be quickly re-equipped, crewed and supplied for medical purposes). They may change outsourced flight and medical crews for each leg of the itenary
Planning complex routes, flight schedules and hospital transfers.
Who's going to handle all of this? You?— In your condition?
…From your hospital bed - all wired and tubed -up, possibly sedated? Your family or friends? - who may not even be with you? Your employer? From far away and delegated mid-level staff - who’ve have never dealt with a medical evacuation?
Then, there is the potential cost. Here’s what you probably don’t realize:
Depending on distance and other variables,
pay-as-you-go medical jet response can range between
$20,000 to $50,000 domestically -
$50,000 to $100,000+ from abroad
…Often payable up-front.
“So I’ll just get some inexpensive Insurance…like Trip Insurance, right?”
Insurance policies are necessary and ideal for many risks. But for this potential situation? For the BEST medical air transport between hospitals? Good luck with that:
Trip Insurance is just a click at check-out but never protects against the cost of medical air transport
Relevant insurance policies very rarely are offered and, if found, eligibility often is much restricted: e.g. age, pre-existing conditions, limits, covers policy holder only, unless $ more for a family plan
Policies usually come with maze of claim limitations, such as “transport to the nearest hospital” — not the one you want near home and cared for my your regular doctors, or to special care hospitals recommended by your medical team
High co-pays, unrealistic maximum coverage amounts - with you paying all the excess costs
Many more exclusions buried in a tangles of legalese fine print.
Other Air Ambulance Membership Programs?
Other top quality medical air transport carriers indeed offer memberships with an acceptable level of benefits - if not as complete as NorthPoint Assurance. The more top-level carriers in the air, the faster the response.
But, here’s the catch: They all cost hundreds of dollars a year...sometimes thousands. That’s might be no problem for frequent, wealthy or business travelers. But what about you? Most other carriers keep the cost of membership somewhat their lowest price by selling "basic" plans with restrictions and limitations, — not full-featured, like NorthPoint Assurance. A member pay a higher price to get even close to NorthPoint Assurance’s total benefits… and still will be paying many times more.
“NorthPoint Assurance”Has Just Changed Everything.

Common Membership Program Questions
-
You pay for many policies and programs for eventualities that are statistically unlikely — life. health, auto, trip insurance, cyber, home or flood insurance.…all far more costly than NorthPoint Assurance. -
Even if you and your household members don’t travel abroad often, most Americans do travel several times a year for family, vacations, sports activities or work.
Things happen.
For the very small cost of a NorthPoint Membership, you’ll find yourself far away without a fast and affordable way to get to where you need to be.
-
Check your current policy. Almost no policies include global bedside-to-bedside air ambulance transport. Even if available or added on, really none ensure the caliber of services, the most limited restrictions, as NorthPoint Insurance…certainly at a cost nearly as low.
-
No comparison. Not to take anything away from other great global air ambulance carrieers. (we need all we can get around the world) …but AirMed is the gold standard, and NorthPoint’s revolutionary “Assurance” Membership Program is, by far, the most completely featured and yet most affordable in the industry.
-
No.
Insurance is a specifially regulated industry. NorthPoint’s membership program is a subscription-based services providing potential bedside-to-bedside medical air transport services. The membership dues are essentially pre-paymenet for services potentially provided. The program is not considered insurance under federal or state regulations. Of course, the Program must carefully abide by all other relevant laws, regulations and certification requirements governing equipment, flight crews, medical care proficiency…. and many other standards and best practices.
-
AirMed, of course, puts the patient’s well-being ahead of all other considerations. So, In rare cases of geography , weather, political or other circumstances , if AirMed is not the fastest, safest, most suitable carrier, AirMed will supplement ore refer to the best carrier available —It has long-standing trusted relationships several trusted carriers
-
That’s not the case at all.
Some carriers charge less for “basic” services, more for additional benefits.
NorthPoint makes no such compromises. Each membership is for the most complete, least limited services.
The low cost comes from the community expense sharing by members (including the military).
-
Those are not included in the NorthPoint member benefits, since they are not predictable and controllable. NP recommends you look for those benefits in your accident, auto, health or other insurance policies and consider purchasing additional coverage when traveling abroad alone, or with family.
-
First, it’s not just a membership for you; it covers members of your household….whether flying, driving, riding in a bus, on a train or jogging, skiing or playing even extreme sports…or just getting ill with a new or even pre-existing condition. As long as hospitalization is 150+ miles from home, you can be medically transported to a facility closer to home or one with specific medical treatments. Secondly, what else do you spend such few dollars on would give you as much peace of mind and high quality of service if you or someone close to you, needs the highest quality of service?
