If I am out of town and it is medically necessary for me to be transported back to local hospital or rehab hospital, will LifeNet come and get me?
Absolutely, as long as you’re a subscriber we can go into other service areas and return our members to a local hospital, rehab, nursing home, etc. The only qualification is that it must be of medical necessity due to bed confinement, the need for monitoring, IV’s etc. Once again, a physicians certification of medical necessity must be signed. We have transported many members home from Little Rock, Shreveport and Dallas areas. Most area ambulance services require payment in advance for long distance transfers, a subscription ensures you the peace of mind that you don’t have to pay in advance and Medicare or private insurance payments are accepted as payment in full.
